Netanyahu to Visit Moscow: Stop Arming Syria

Local Editor

"Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will travel to Moscow next week to speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin about the deployment of Moscow's forces to Syria and the "Israeli" fears from the alleged weapon deliveries to Damascus.

According to Bibi's office, "Netanyahu will discuss the dangers "Israel" faces if Hizbullah and other groups obtain Russian advanced weapons shipments."

Russian government spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed that the meeting was to take place on Monday, Sputnik News reported.

Moscow has been one of Syria's staunchest backers throughout the war, along with Iran and Hizbullah.

The apartheid entity further also expressed fears that the nuclear deal reached between six world powers, including Russia, and Iran could see money freed up as sanctions are lifted flowing to Hizbullah and other groups.

Relations between "Israel" and Russia have been negatively affected by Moscow's willingness to sell military equipment to Iran.

Netanyahu last traveled to Moscow in 2013 to lobby Putin to cancel the sale of the advanced S-300 air defense system to Iran, though this had failed.

Putin had earlier defended Russia's military assistance to the Syrian government, saying it was impossible to defeat the "ISIL" group without cooperation with Damascus and urging other countries to join the cause.
