Jerusalem Post: Putin Adviser: Israel’s security important, Russian ‘countrymen' are here
Patrushev said that he is in the country at the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin
Russia has a special interest in Israel’s security because just under two million “countrymen” live here, Nikolai Patrushev, the head of Russia’s National Security Council, said Sunday before meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“We put special attention on ensuring Israel’s security,” he said.
Patrushev arrived on Monday to take part in a trilateral meeting with US National Security Adviser John Bolton, who arrived on Saturday, and his Israeli counterpart, Meir Ben-Shabbat. Netanyahu will also take part in the meeting, which is scheduled for Tuesday.
Patrushev, in brief public comments in Russian before the meeting that were translated into Hebrew, said he is in the country at the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who agreed on this format during talks with Netanyahu.
