Prime Minister Viktor Orbán greeted Hungarian Jews on Hanukkah in a letter addressed to the leaders of Jewish organizations in Hungary, Bertalan Havasi, Deputy State Secretary in charge of the Prime Minister's Press Office, announced yesterday.
As the days get shorter and the evenings get longer, we yearn more and more for light, traditional delicacies and joyful days spent with family, Viktor Orbán wrote.
This year, he continued, when the holiday arrives amid a pandemic and waves of migration, the flames of Hanukkah shine even more beautifully, proclaiming hope and the reality of miracles.
As the Prime Minister of Hungary, allow me to respectfully greet you on the holiday of light - concluded the Prime Minister's letter.
