Russiaâs Ambassador to Israel Ambassador Anatoly Viktorov on Wednesday was summoned to the Foreign Ministry following an interview with the Jerusalem Post in which he claimed that Israel, and not Iran, is the problem in the Middle East.
âThe problem in the region is not Iranian activities. Itâs a lack of understanding between countries and non-compliance with UN resolutions in the Israel-Arab and Israel-Palestinian conflict,â Viktorov asserted in the interview published earlier in the day.
