Israel-Russia relations amid Ukraine war– Jerusalem Studio 684

The Russia-Israel relationship, which was favorable until the invasion of Ukraine, is now a minor casualty of this war, in which Jerusalem has no direct self-interest. At first Israel tried to avoid taking a position, but American pressure to condemn Russia’s policy proved too much - and Moscow countered in kind. Diplomatically, verbal blows are exchanged, with the Russian Foreign Ministry singling out Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid for an “aggressive” statement and blaming him for trying to distract attention from “one of the oldest unsettled conflicts,” namely - the Israeli-Palestinian one. But on the military side, Israel has refrained from helping Ukraine and Russia kept its co-existence with the Israel Defense Forces in Syria. What does it all add up to? Panel: - Jonathan Hessen, Host. - Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play. - Ms. Sophie Kobzantsev, Research Fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies. - Prof. Zeev Khanin, Expert on Russian and Middle Eastern Studies, Bar Ilan and Ariel Universities.
