“Spoiled Phone”: Ambassador of Israel denied the data on the alleged transfer of Russian weapons captured in Lebanon in Lebanon

“I’m sure I’ll disappoint you a little, but it’s not about Israel’s initiative, there’s some broken phone here. Someone probably didn’t understand something””, — write: www.radiosvoboda.org

Israel’s ambassador to Ukraine, Michael Brodsky, denied his country’s intention to transfer Russian weapons captured in Lebanon to Ukraine. He told about this in an interview with Radio Svoboda.

“I’m sure I’ll disappoint you a little, but it’s not about Israel’s initiative, there’s some broken phone here. Someone probably didn’t understand something. Sharren Haskel, when she was still a member of the Knesset, a member of parliament, and not a deputy minister of foreign affairs, came forward with a private legislative initiative, according to which Israel would transfer captured Russian-made weapons to Ukraine. This initiative did not advance in the Knesset,” he said.

He noted that since then Sharren Haskell has become the deputy minister of foreign affairs and can no longer submit private legislative initiatives as a member of the government.

Therefore, as the ambassador suggests, we can put an end to this.
“What concerns the transfer of weapons is fully and completely in the hands of the army and the Ministry of Defense. No such decision was adopted by the Ministry of Defense of Israel,” said Mikhail Brodsky.

Last week, Ambassador of Ukraine to Israel Yevhen Korniychuk met with Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Israel Sharren Haskel and thanked for such an initiative.

According to the Ukrainian embassy, ​​during the meeting, Yevhen Korniychuk thanked the interlocutor for the previously submitted proposal in the Knesset – to transfer to Ukraine Russian-made weapons captured by the IDF in Lebanon. The embassy noted that this initiative “would be an important step in recognizing the common threats that both countries face.” The Ukrainian side expressed hope for a positive decision on this issue.
