Jewish community in Sala, “overcoming misunderstandings, we walk together”

(ANSA) – MILAN, 07 OCTOBER – “Thank you Mayor Sala, your presence is more important than you can imagine. In the past there were some misunderstandings but that’s all over. From today we must have a journey with you and with all the council and the municipal council”. Thus Walker Meghnagi, president of the Jewish Community of Milan, during the event organized in the synagogue of Milan to remember the victims of the attack on 7 October, also in the presence of the president of the Senate Ignazio La Russa. The mayor of Milan Sala had in the past been booed in the synagogue with the Jewish community asking him to display an Israeli flag in Palazzo Marino. “I couldn’t miss it,” said senator for life Liliana Segre as she arrived at the synagogue. The senator said this sentence to Roberto Jarach who is also president of the Shoah Memorial, as well as a member of the Jewish community, who welcomed her upon her arrival. “Beyond the affection between us, you are a guide for me and for the Milanese and at this moment I would say the most important guide that Milan has”, said the mayor of Milan addressing Liliana Segre in his speech at the synagogue . “I am here as your friend. I have always expressed closeness towards you to tell you to hold on. I am and will always be at your side. You are fighting for civilization against incivility”, said the president of the Lombardy Region Attilio Fontana . (HANDLE).
