In honor of Passover, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, met with rabbis from Ukrainian cities and representatives of Jewish communities, including a military chaplain and a soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Zelenskyy congratulated those present on Passover, wishing everyone health and victory. He emphasized that Passover is precisely about the victory of freedom.
“This is very important for Ukraine today. Freedom is important, and we are fighting for it with all the people of Ukraine. And we thank you for being in this struggle, for supporting the entire people, our entire state. You support your communities, you support our people. Your support is very important,” the president emphasized.
In response, the chief rabbis noted that Ukraine is going through difficult times, but has not lost its statehood and freedom, and continues to fight. They emphasized that the Jewish community will continue to make every effort and pray for Ukraine’s victory.
