Berl Lazar told the President about plans to create a Russian-Jewish museum. The Chief Rabbi explained that the museum will be designed to educate the younger generation in a spirit of tolerance and mutual respect.

Vladimir Putin supported the idea of establishing such a museum. The President remarked that many people will want to support a project designed to ensure that all faiths live in peace and harmony – a genuine strength of a multinational and multireligious country such as Russia.
