“When we close one period and enter a new one, in addition to taking stock, we always also have an opportunity for a new start. I believe it won’t be difficult to bid farewell to the challenging year behind us so that finally, steeled with new goals and plans, we can look forward to a more peaceful and calmer future with faith,” Mr Orbán wrote.

“May the sound of the shofar elevate your holiday, may the round honey challah make the new year sweet. A good year, and may you all be inscribed and sealed,” the Prime Minister concluded his holiday greetings.
