On 14 November, Hungarian Foreign Minister Dr. Ferenc Somogyi (second from left) visited Yad Vashem together with his Deputy Laszlo Vakonyi. During the visit, Dr. Somogyi presented Chairman of the Yad Vashem Directorate Avner Shalev (left) with the Commander’s Cross with the Star of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Hungary, in recognition of Yad Vashem’s work in promoting Holocaust education and remembrance in Hungary.
Three other Yad Vashem employees also received state decorations: Chava Baruch (right) and Zita Turgeman (second from right), of the European Department of the International School for Holocaust Studies; and Sari Reuveni, of the International Institute for Holocaust Research and a volunteer on the Commission for the Designation of Righteous Among the Nations.
