Muslim Republic of Tatarstan to Get Jewish Center

A Jewish center will soon be built within the walls of the ‘Kremlin’ (fortress) that lies in the center of Kazan, the capital city of Tatarstan, a Muslim-majority autonomous republic in Russia.

The new center was announced following a meeting between the President of Tatarstan,  Mr. Rustam Minironov, and Russia’s chief rabbi Berel Lazar.

The center will be overseen by the chief rabbi and Chabad Emissary to Kazan, Rabbi Yitzchok Gorelik.
