Liberman meets Russia counterpart in Moscow for Syria talks

Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman meets his Russian counterpart Sergei Shoigu in Moscow.

In a statement to the media before their meeting, Shoigu says the two will discuss the deescalation zones in southern Syria, an area Israel has been urging be kept free of Iranian forces.

Shoigu also invites Liberman to join the annual Victory Day March commemorating the Allied victory over Nazi Germany, to be held in Moscow on May 9, 2019. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was present at this year’s march in Red Square.
