"The arc of moral justice is long, but it bends towards justice", says the famous old quote repeated by Martin Luther King. It's been an extraordinary summer covering Israel and it started for me with this remarkable interview with His Excellency, Ambassador Ferenc Kumin at the Hungarian Embassy in London. With Israel and the UAE agreeing to normalization, Oman and Bahrain set to follow their gulf neighbour, Muslim-majority Kosovo establishing diplomatic ties and with Serbia's decision to move their mission to Jerusalem, a reset of positions, some deeply entrenched is due from nations right across the world. I was touched by Ambassador Kumin's sincerity and knowledge of Hungarian Jewish history as we discussed extremely difficult events of the twentieth century. LISTEN to this powerful and sometimes emotional interview.
