"On the occasion of the celebration of the festivities of Rosh Hashanah and the start of the year 5778, according to the Jewish calendar, I wish, on behalf of my government and the people of Spain, to offer my best wishes to the Jewish community in Spain, Israel and the rest of the world.

The arrival of a new year is a time for reflection, personal growth and reconciliation, so necessary given the challenges facing our societies. I hope that this New Year allows us to work towards peace and harmony, and to build a better world.

I wish all Jewish communities a Happy and Prosperous New Year and Day of Atonement in the company of their loved ones.

"Shanah Tovah"
(Happy New Year)"

Mariano Rajoy Brey
President of the Government of Spain
