Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu says he will not let Iran use Syrian territory as a base for its military and proposed to set up a team with others to reach the goal of removing all foreign forces on its soil
Russian President Vladimir Putin, right, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attend the talks in the Kremlin in Moscow, Russia, Wednesday, on February 27, 2019.
For Benjamin Netanyahu, it's the first trip to Moscow since September's downing of a Russian warplane by Syrian forces that were responding to an Israeli air strike. The incident left 15 Russian crew dead and threatened to derail close security ties between Russia and Israel. "The greatest threat to stability and security in the region comes from Iran and its satellites," he said. "We are determined to continue with our aggressive action against the efforts of Iran, which calls for our destruction, and against its attempts to entrench militarily in Syria.
Netanyahu noted that he and Putin have had 11 meetings since September 2015 and hailed "the direct, open and true way in which we maintain the relationship between Russia and Israel."
