dhe President of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, Joseph Shuster, was confirmed in office on Sunday in Frankfurt am Main. The Presidium unanimously elected the 68-year-old doctor from Würzburg for another four years, the Board announced. After his election, Schuster announced that in his third term as president, he wanted to place more emphasis on the positive elements of Judaism in Germany. “We don’t always want to be just moral cautionaries, we want to find answers to the social questions of our time and thus create encounters and break down prejudices,” he said. Mark Dainow from Offenbach am Main and Abraham Lehrer from Cologne were also confirmed as vice presidents.
