Greetings to Russia’s Jews 2022-09-25 09:00:00 Vladimir Putin sent greetings to Russia’s Jews on Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. The message reads, in part: “The Rosh Hashanah holiday turns believers to high moral guidelines which lie at the foundation of all global religions – humanity, piety and mercy, inspires them to do good deeds. It is very important that while retaining their loyalty to old spiritual traditions, Russia’s Jews make a hefty contribution to the preservation of cultural diversity in our country, to strengthening interethnic concord and the principles of mutual respect and religious tolerance.”
