The Russian Ambassador to Israel Anatoly Viktorov said that Israel destabilizes the Middle East more than Iran. “The problem in the region is not Iranian activities,” Viktorov said at the Russian Embassy in Tel Aviv. “It’s a lack of understanding between countries and non-compliance with UN resolutions in the Israel-Arab and Israel-Palestinian conflict,” Viktorov said at the Russian embassy in Tel Aviv. He also commented on the normalization agreements between Arab countries and Israel, saying that Russia is supportive of the Abraham Accords, but added: “We strongly believe that the Palestinian question should not be put aside. The normalization should not replace a Palestinian-Israeli settlement because this problem will remain and will continue to endanger not only the countries and peoples of the region but also many others around the globe.” Viktorov warned that the continuing Israeli-Palestinian conflict is “allowing terrorists to recruit more supporters into their ranks.” Russia’s offer for Israel and the Palestinians to hold direct negotiations in Moscow still stands, as well as a suggestion to hold an international conference on the matter, he added.
