>(JTA) — Romanians and Jewish groups in Hungary celebrated as a Romanian singer’s song about oppressed minorities advanced to the finals of the Eurovision song contest.
>Joci Pápai, 35, is the first Romanian to represent Hungary in the continental song competition among 42 countries. He made the cut in the semi-finals Thursday night in Kiev, along with performers representing Israel and 25 additional countries, including Belarus, Azerbaijan and Austria.
>“If he wins that contest, and because of this Hungary would be the host of the next contest, then it would be really something,” Adam Schonberger, a Hungarian Jew who runs Aurora, an organization that encourages dialogue and cooperation between Roma and Jews, told JTA Friday.
>Schonberger noted, however, that deep-seated anti-Romanian prejudice among segments of the political right in Hungary would likely make it difficult for many Hungarians to rally around Pápai if he wins in the finals Saturday.
