Tag: Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt

In March 2022, Rabbi Goldschmidt and his wife left Russia for Hungary after they refused to publicly support the invasion.

Rabbi Goldschmidt suggested the Russians may declare God a foreign agent as well.

Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt served as chief rabbi of Moscow for over 30 years, until the morning after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, when he woke up to a frightening reality that reminded him of the “dark days of the Iron Curtain.”

Goldschmidt, who has served as a rabbi in Moscow for the last 33 years, is also president of the Conference of European Rabbis.
