Israeli Prime Minister Bennett Meets Russian President Putin
(Times of Israel) Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Black Sea resort town of Sochi on Friday. Bennett said, "Putin and I spoke about a wide range of issues, from his special relationship with the Jewish people to ways to deal with Islamic fundamentalism." Housing Minister Ze'ev Elkin, a native Russian speaker who accompanied Bennett as a translator, said the two held deep discussions on Iran's nuclear program and a very wide conversation on maintaining a coordination mechanism regarding Syria. "It was decided to keep policies vis-a-vis Russia in place [regarding airstrikes] in Syrian territory," Elkin said.
