Israel’s Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, in an exclusive interview stated on the Iranian threat and relations with Ukraine. After his return from Ukraine, where he met with Ukranian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy, top diplomat Eli Cohen answered on many important questions. Are Israel and Ukraine now joining forces against Iran? About Israel’s relations with Russia, Turkey and the Arab world.
What is know, is that Eli Cohen’s words about Ukraine are as follows:
“Iran has moved closer to Europe… Iranian weapons are killing European civilians in Ukraine… Now the Ukrainian people and the Israeli people are facing the same threat… The time has come to act,” said Israel’s Foreign Minister Eli Cohen.
He noted that there are two options on the table:
- increased sanctions, but also
- a “credible military alternative.”
Based on what the intelligence says, “now is the right time to work on those two moves.” Only joint decisive actions can stop the regime, emphasized Cohen and called on Germany to recognize the Guardians of the Islamic Revolution as a terrorist organization.
