Zelensky did not hide his admiration for the books and pamphlets printed in the local language, on which they labored at the Kharkiv printing house under the management of Mr. Shifrin and Mr. Wilensky. “We are proud of your firm stand. You are an example to the whole world of how to fight for justice,” said Rabbi Stembler to the president.
