Hungarian Jewish community ousts president

Mađarska Židovska zajednica smjenila predsjednika

A general meeting of the Federation of Hungarian Jewish Communities (MAZSIHISZ), an EJC affiliate, on Sunday recalled president Peter Feldmajer and gave managing director Gusztav Zoltai a vote of confidence.

Na glavnom sastanku  u nedjelju Federacije mađarskih židovskih zajednica (MAZSIHISZ), koja je član EJC opozvala je predsjednika Petera feldmayera i dala povjerenje direktoru Zoltai-u povjerenje. Na sastanku je prihvaćena ostavka cijelog Odbora organizacije MAZSIHISZ,  sa samo jednom iznimkom. Sam je Feldmayer bio inicijator glasanja  za povjerenje protiv njega.

Od 89 glasova ( dva su bila nevažeća) samo je 49 izrazilo povjerenje pa je tako Feldmayer dao ostavku. Zoltai je zadržao svoj položaj sa dvije trećine glasova koji su  mu pokazali povjerenje.

Asked why the vote of no confidence was called, Zoltai said “I believe we all have to let what happened here settle in”. He added that Feldmajer’s numerable achievements, from Holocaust reparations to holding the organisation together, could “not be denied”.

Peter Feldmajer was a longstanding and involved member of the executive of the European Jewish Congress and was heavily responsible in the organisation of the recent World Jewish Congress General Assembly in Budapest.
