Srdečné blahoželanie bahájom na celom svete k výročiu narodenia Bába a Bahá'u'lláha.
Nech nás tieto sväté dni inšpirujú stavať mosty, prehlbovať porozumenie a spoločne pracovať pre svet mieru, dôstojnosti a jednoty.
Warmest congratulations to the Bahá'í community on the Twin Holy Birthdays, celebrating the births of the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh. Wishing you a day filled with joy, unity, and peace
88 years since Kristallnacht. When the glass shattered, the world was silent. Never again. #KrištáľováNoc #NikdyViac
V noci 9. novembra 1938 sa Nemeckom a Rakúskom prehnalo organizované nacistické násilie proti Židom. Bola to predzvesť holokaustu.
O 88 rokov neskôr antisemitizmus opäť silnie. „Nikdy viac“ musí naozaj znamenať nikdy viac.

491 dní v zajatí. 15 metrov pod zemou. Eli Sharabi v rozhovore pre JOJ 24 opísal bitie, hlad aj psychický teror, ktorým prešiel v zajatí Hamasu. Aj tak si zachoval nádej.

The Genocide lie.
The Apartheid lie.
It was never about facts but about demonizing Israel and whitewashing Hamas's crimes.
Privileged to have Eli in Bratislava, and to have his book translated to Slovak.

Dnes si pripomíname 31 rokov od atentátu na premiéra Jicchaka Rabina. Spomíname na jeho nasadenie za bezpečnosť Izraela a úsilie o mier. Jeho odkaz nám pripomína význam jednoty, demokracie a odmietania politického násilia.
🕯️ Česť jeho pamiatke.
Today, we mark 31 years since the assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
We remember his unwavering commitment to Israel’s security, his dedication to the State of Israel, and his determination to pursue peace against all odds.
His legacy reminds us of the importance of unity, democracy, and rejecting political violence.
🕯️ May his memory be a blessing.
יהי זכרו ברוך

*Foreign Ministry Welcomes 36 New Diplomatic Cadets*
*Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar at the opening ceremony: “The better you communicate, the better diplomats you will be.”*
Thirty-six new cadets, selected from nearly 2,000 applicants, began their training today as part of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ prestigious diplomatic cadet programme.
The programme was officially launched at a ceremony attended by Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar and senior Ministry officials.
The new class brings together people from a wide range of backgrounds, including a member of a former South Lebanon Army (SLA) family, veterans of elite military units and media professionals.
With an acceptance rate of less than 2%, the programme attracted applicants from across Israeli society. This year’s class includes 19 women and 17 men, ranging in age from 26 to 51, with an average age of 34. Among them are both recent and long-established immigrants from Russia, Ethiopia, the UK, Canada and Venezuela.
Speaking at the ceremony, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar told the cadets:
“Represent Israel with a deep conviction in the justice of our cause. That is at the heart of your mission.
“The better you communicate, the better diplomats you will be. Someone who cannot communicate effectively can never be a good diplomat.
“We are fighting a war not only on the battlefield, but also in the battle for public opinion, against powerful forces. If we cannot tell our own story and make our case, no one else will do it for us.”
Over the next six months, the cadets will undergo intensive training before taking up positions at the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem and at Israeli diplomatic missions around the world.

🇮🇱 As Israel heads to elections this week, we are reminded that our strength lies in our diversity.
Proud of my colleague Sahar for her statement at the @UN.
Inclusion, equal rights & political participation are essential to building resilient, peaceful societies.

Vznik Československa otvoril Slovákom a Čechom cestu k vlastnej štátnosti. Boli to dva národy, každý s vlastným jazykom, kultúrou a identitou, ktoré sa rozhodli budovať spoločnú budúcnosť.
Pre Izrael má tento príbeh aj osobný rozmer. Prvý prezident Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk sa už koncom 19. storočia počas Hilsnerovej aféry verejne postavil proti antisemitským predsudkom, hoci ho to stálo popularitu. V roku 1927 ako prezident navštívil Jeruzalem a rozvíjajúce sa židovské komunity v Krajine Izraela. Medzivojnové Československo zároveň umožnilo Židom hlásiť sa k židovskej národnosti.
Pri dnešnom výročí si pripomíname hodnoty, na ktorých tento štát vznikol: slobodu a demokraciu.

On 28 October 1918, a defining moment in Slovakia’s modern history took place. The founding of Czechoslovakia opened the way to statehood for Slovaks and Czechs, two nations, each with its own language, culture and identity, who chose to build a shared future.
For Israel, this story also carries a personal dimension. In the late 19th century, during the Hilsner affair, Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, who would become Czechoslovakia’s first president, publicly stood up against antisemitic prejudice, even at the cost of his own popularity. In 1927, as president, he visited Jerusalem and the growing Jewish communities in the Land of Israel. Interwar Czechoslovakia also allowed Jews to declare Jewish nationality.
On today’s anniversary, we remember the values on which this state was founded: freedom and democracy.

Today, Israel celebrates democracy in action. 🇮🇱 Every vote matters, every voice counts, and every citizen has the right to shape our shared future. Democracy thrives on diversity, freedom of choice, and respect for different views. 🗳️
Jeden malý lístok. Jeden hlas s rovnakou váhou. 🗳️ V Izraeli majú občania od 18 rokov právo voliť parlament bez ohľadu na vierovyznanie či pôvod.
Jedna krajina, mnoho hlasov, jedna demokracia. 🇮🇱
