Greetings to Russian Jews on Rosh Hashanah

September 22, 2025

Vladimir Putin sent his greetings to Russia’s Jews on Rosh Hashanah.

The message reads, in part:

“This holiday that marks the beginning of a new year in the Jewish calendar is calling the believers to repentance, to embrace and compassion, symbolises commitment to lofty moral ideals, which form the basis of all traditional religions.

A careful attitude to the history of its people and observance of ancient traditions serve today as a spiritual support for Russia’s Jews, who are making an important contribution to the country’s development, to strengthening interethnic and interfaith accord.”
