What does Passover look like in the eyes of Yesh Atid Chairman Yair Lapid?

Ahead of the holiday, he posted a greeting video in which he says: "The story of this holiday, of Passover, is a story of a path, and the idea of ​​this holiday is that it forces you to examine the path you are taking.

Remember that no one promised you that you would reach the Promised Land. You have to work at it. And we continue to work. We are here for many years, and we have a role - to protect the public purse, to fight so that there is no liquidation sale of our achievements, to never give up, until we bring the State of Israel to where it needs to be: a strong, secure state, whose enemies know not to mess with it.

A country where a young working couple can make ends meet and even buy an apartment. A country whose politicians don't sell themselves cheaply for a seat, but work for the public.

A country where every person says to themselves, every morning, 'I have taken upon myself the good commandment of loving your neighbor as yourself.'.

Enjoy yourselves and think about this beautiful and ancient thing, that everywhere in the world, from Beijing to Los Angeles, from Kathmandu to Rio de Janeiro, Jews like you are sitting, grandfather at the head of the table, one nephew falling asleep, Aunt Hannah asking how the charoset was, and everyone is telling the story of the Exodus from Egypt and everyone is asking themselves only one thing: 'Well, when do we eat?'"'
