Hanukkah is a time when even a small flame can dispel great darkness
Today, together with the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky and the chief rabbis of the cities, I had the honor of lighting the first candle of Hanukkah! This is a very symbolic rite that reminds us of the victory of light over darkness, of faith over hopelessness, of unity over discord!
Hanukkah is a time when even a small flame can dispel great darkness.
And today, more than ever, this message is relevant for Ukraine. The light of Hanukkah unites us even in the most difficult times. And we will be able to overcome any trials
By the way, President Zelensky lit not a simple Hanukkiah, but the one presented to him by the President of Argentina Javier Milay at his inauguration
