From Netanyahu says he asked Putin to condemn Hezbollah
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleNetanyahu says he spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin “the other day” to discuss the upcoming UN Security Council meeting on the cross-border attack tunnels.
“And I asked that Russia take the right stance, which is to condemn Hezbollah, and not be either supportive of them or neutral on this,” he says.
Netanyahu says Russia has frequently voiced support for preventing wars in the region. “Well, the way to prevent another war is to prevent Hezbollah from acting aggressively against Israel from Lebanon or for that matter, from Syria. Same thing for Iran.”
“I’ve said that to Mr. Putin many times,” he says.
