Jerusalem: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will fly to Moscow to meet Russian president Vladimir Putin next week, confirmed the Prime Minister’s Office.
The meeting is likely to deal with Iran and its involvement in Syria, reported the Jerusalem Post.
According to the Prime Minister’s office, Netanyahu has told some of the world leaders he is presently meeting at the World Economics Forum (WEF) in Davos that Israel will not let Iran establish itself militarily in Syria after the civil war there.
