Russia Appreciates Israeli "Balance" in Georgian Conflict
[Jerusalem Post] Herb Keinon - Russia very much appreciates the "balanced" approach Israel has demonstrated during the current Russian-Georgian conflict, its charge d'affaires, Anatoly Yurkov, told the Jerusalem Post on Monday. The Israeli Foreign Ministry issued a statement Sunday recognizing the territorial integrity of Georgia and calling for a peaceful solution. Yurkov said Moscow was likely to take Israel's position of not selling offensive weapons to Georgia into account when weighing its own arms sales to Iran and Syria.
