Guest of Honour: The Honourable Mr. Nathaniel Rothschild
О связях между Натаниэлем Ротшильдом и руководителем "Хабада" в России раввином Берл Лазаром:

"My only qualification for speaking tonight is that I am very good friends with Rabbi Lazar. I thank Elliot Shear for sponsoring this event and I thank my friend and business partner David Slager for sponsoring this centre and making it a reality.

I have been going to Russia since 1992, when I was still a student in Oxford. When I began visiting Russia regularly around 2001, I didn’t have much idea about the resurgence of Jewish life. However, I met Rabbi Lazar in Switzerland at the World Economic Forum in Davos and I was struck by watching this figure and we eventually connected and started talking, and from there began a friendship and I started visiting his centre in Russia, many times a year... ...Rabbi Lazar is a great unifying force in Russia.". / Nathaniel Rothschild, из выступления в феврале 2008 года/

Вспомнилось: "бюджет ХАБАД...превышает два миллиарда долларов в год..."
