Ukrainian Prime Minister, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on Monday, accused Israel of bringing about an alliance between Russia and Iran, a claim that analysts have termed “bizarre.” Addressing the Haaretz Democracy Conference in a pre-recorded message, Zelenskyy said the alliance “simply would not have happened if your politicians had made only one decision at the time. The decision we asked for,” referring to Ukraine’s requests for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system.
