Trump's Secret Plot: Repairing Bibi-Putin Ties to Counter Iran's Growing Nuclear Threat
The Trump administration allegedly pressured Israel to abstain from voting on a UN resolution condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine in an effort to strengthen ties with Russia and neutralize Iran's growing threat. The move is part of President Trump's 'Israel art of the deal' strategy, which aims to repair relationships between Israel and key world powers including Russia and Putin.
The Trump administration is reportedly using its diplomatic efforts in Israel to repair relations with Russia, which was strained following a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2019, as part of a broader strategy to neutralize the Iranian threat in the region. This comes as Israel has faced pressure from the US to vote against a UN resolution condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine. In return for their cooperation on Iran, Israel is said to be receiving significant concessions, including improved access to military technology and greater security guarantees. The renewed relationship between Netanyahu and Putin marks a significant shift in the long-standing strategic partnership between Israel and Russia.
