Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Russian President Vladimir Putin are to speak by phone Monday before Putin's trip to Beijing this week.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Russian President Vladimir Putin are likely to speak during a phone call Monday evening, a senior official tells Fox News. The call will represent the first time the two leaders will speak since Hamas' surprise Oct. 7 attacks on Israeli civilians prompted Israel to declare war against the Gaza-based terror group.
The Biden administration deployed Secretary of State Antony Blinken to the Middle East to meet with Arab leaders in hopes of deterring a wider-ranging conflict amid the war in Israel, as Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah has been exchanging fire with Israelis along the country's northern border with Lebanon and thus raising concerns of the opening of a second front.
Just weeks before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Putin met with Xi in Beijing and signed an agreement that pledged a 'no-limits' relationship. Beijing’s attempts to present itself as a neutral peace broker in Russia’s war in Ukraine have been widely dismissed by the international community. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
