Simcha Dinitz received an exceptionally friendly reception by high level officials in Budapest this week.
The chairman of the World Zionist Organization-Jewish Agency Executive met with the foreign minister, the religious affairs minister and the head of the Hungarian state bank.
Dinitz visited Jewish communal sites with the encouragement of the government and the assistance of the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture and the World Jewish Congress.
Dinitz, who also was to visit Romania, intimated that a side trip to Moscow was not out of the question. He is interested in arranging with Soviet officials direct flights to Israel, via Romania, of Russian Jews leaving the USSR.
While in Hungary, Dinitz arranged for trips to Israel by teen-agers of the Hungarian Jewish camping program at Lake Balaton. More than 40 of them are expected here next week.
