Even today, all our Jewish compatriots can celebrate safely in Hungary.
- The Hanukkah candles lit on the darkest days of the year remind us that not even the longest night can last forever, and that even the most difficult times have to come to an end, Viktor Orbán wrote in his letter to Hungarian Jews on the occasion of the Hanukkah holiday.
The Prime Minister stated that this message is particularly important now, when anti-Semitism is on the rise across Europe, as a result of which innocent people are being attacked simply because of their origin and faith.
"It gives me a good feeling that even in these difficult times, Hungary is an island of peace in the world, where all our Jewish compatriots can live and celebrate in safety," said the prime minister.
"As the Prime Minister of Hungary, allow me to respectfully greet you on the holiday of light and wish that the miracle of Hanukkah will bring the long-awaited peace to all of us!" - concluded the prime minister.
