Israel PM Flies Secretly To Russia: 'Urgent National Security Matter'?

Israel PM flies secretly to Russia… Details emerge…

#BREAKING Israeli Prime Ministe Naftali Bennett is in Moscow, where he met with Putin for two and a half hours. Details to come.

Bennett was accompanied by Kharkiv-born Housing Minister Zeev Elkin, who has translated Putin for Israeli prime ministers for more than a decade. His brother and other relatives are in Ukraine right now. Zelensky reportedly offered Elkin a cabinet post when he became president.

Bennett and Elkin observe Shabbat and broke it to go to Moscow to meet with Putin, indicating that it's an urgent national security matter.

Meanwhile, today, as an Iran deal looked inevitable, Russia is making new demands in the nuclear talks.
Could they be related?

Specifically, the demand is that the recent US and European sanctions on Russia carve out an exception so that they can trade with Iran. Which is not good for Israel if they get that guarantee, but if it prevents a deal from being signed, is good from Jerusalem's POV.Putin and Bennett agreed to continue the deconfliction mechanism, by which Jerusalem coordinates with Moscow, before airstrikes on Iranian targets in Syria, where the Russian Army is the dominant force. Also, Putin asked Israel not to sell weapons to Ukraine
