EAJC President congratulated President of Ukraine on Independence Day

President of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress Dr. Michael Mirilashvili congratulated Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the President of Ukraine, on Ukraine’s Independence Day.

A letter of congratulations to the President reads the following:

“Dear Mr. President, on behalf of all EAJC leaders, I would like to express my gratitude to you for your involvement in the fight against anti-Semitism and xenophobia. These and other forms of intolerance and hatred have no place in a modern democratic society and their prevention is the main objective of any civilized state.

EAJC actively cooperates with the Jewish community of Ukraine. We remember the centuries-old history of the Jewish people settling in Ukraine; we work hard to preserve and study history, to develop community life, and are pleased to provide wide support to social and educational programs. We sincerely hope to build and maintain good relations between Ukraine and Israel, between the Jewish and Ukrainian peoples.”.
