Multinational and multi religious Montenegro has been for centuries a good example of harmonized coexistence in richness of diversity, with respect and appreciation of different identities. Montenegro is honored by the fact that, after London, Brussels and Kiev, the fourth office of the European Jewish Union is opened in Podgorica, with a status of regional center for Balkans.

I wish you happy Festival of Light, with a wish to spend it with family and friends of other religions, in good health and welfare.

President of the Parliament of Montenegro, Mr. Ranko Krivokapić.”
