Tensions Between Russia & Israel Soar as Top Putin Ally Threatens to Cut Diplomatic Relations with Jerusalem
Joel C. Rosenberg with Charisma News reports:
A member of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle of advisors threatened this week that Moscow is ready to sever diplomatic ties with Israel.
The threat came via former Russian President Dmitri Medvedev who publicly warned that any Israeli effort to supply arms to Ukraine will “destroy all diplomatic relations between our countries.”
“Israel appears to be getting ready to supply weapons to the Kyiv regime,” Medvedev wrote Tuesday on Telegram, the social media platform.
“A very reckless move,” he wrote. “It would destroy all bilateral relations between our countries.”
Medvedev is currently the deputy head of the Russian Security Council.
On Sunday, Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Nachman Shai wrote on Twitter that due to Iran reportedly transferring ballistic missiles to Russia for use in the Ukraine war “there is no longer any doubt where Israel should stand in this bloody conflict,” the Israeli news site Ynet reported.
“The time has come for Ukraine to receive military aid as well, just as the USA and NATO countries provide,” Shai wrote.
WHY SHOULD THIS MATTER TO CHRISTIANS?
