Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived at the Kremlin and met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday. “This visit symbolizes our ties getting even closer,” Netanyahu said, highlighting that Putin was the first international leader he met to discuss the release of the Trump administration’s peace plan after his meetings in Washington. The prime minister also praised the Russian leader for his speech at the World Holocaust Forum in Jerusalem last week and for pardoning Israeli-American jailed 26-year-old Naama Issachar who was released earlier in the day after spending several months in a Russian jail. Putin mentioned that Holocaust ceremony that took place in Jerusalem last week with leaders from around the world was very touching. In the meeting, the two leaders are going to talk about several important bilateral issues. Source
