Netanyahu to meet with Putin to discuss Iran, Syria - UPI.com
UPI reports: "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Tuesday he plans to
travel to Russia later this month to meet with Russian President
Vladimir Putin.
The Feb. 21 trip, the first formal meeting between the two leaders in
about a year, is expected to address Iranian efforts to establish a
military presence in Syria."
Comment: Will be watching this closely. Would Russia have gone to all that effort and expense to secure the Assad regime and then turn Syria over to Iran? That is doubtful. Still, it's possible that Russia would acquiesce to a small permanent Iranian presence. I'm sure that is something Israel will go to great lengths to prevent.
