Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Tuesday 25 Nissan, spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The Prime Minister expressed Israel’s grave concerns regarding the decision to sell S-300 missile systems to Iran.

PM Netanyahu on Tuesday also issued the following statement:

“This sale of advanced weaponry to Iran is the direct result of the dangerous deal on the table between Iran and the P5+1. Can anyone still seriously claim that the deal with Iran will enhance security in the Middle East?”
