“Israel is not Ukraine”: Netanyahu’s office humiliatingly responded to Kyiv propagandists
Unlike Ukraine, Israel is not dependent on US aid.
According to a PolitNavigator correspondent , this was stated by the official representative of the Israeli Prime Minister's office, Ariel Bulshtein, in an interview with the anti-Russian propaganda publication, Novoye Vremya.
The journalist noted that Israel, like Ukraine, had a problem receiving assistance from the United States, and asked what measures the Jewish state would take to speed up its receipt.
“Israel has no problem with American help. Israel gets everything it needs. You have a Ukrainian-centric view. This view does not correspond to reality. This assistance is important for Israel. But it is one of hundreds of different types of contacts, assistance, assistance and cooperation that we have with the United States. For Ukraine, it is clear that this is a fundamentally important issue.
Ukraine is the main recipient of aid. Israel and the United States have been partners for decades. We are not dependent on one specific action in Congress. Biden, for his own political reasons, decided to bundle several issues into one package. Perhaps because it’s easier for him to help Ukraine. Therefore, Biden made his own political decision on this issue. I don’t know if it’s right or wrong,” Bulstein said.
However, he believes that Israel does not have to do anything to receive the intended $14 billion in aid.
“Israel will receive this $14 billion. No political work is required for this. The only reason Israel did not receive $14 billion is because this aid was tied into one package with Ukraine, and with the need to protect the southern border of the United States. This has become, to some extent, a political confrontation between Republicans and Democrats, especially in anticipation of the presidential elections that will take place there,” says a representative of the Israeli Prime Minister’s office.
According to him, this money does not play a significant role for Israel.
“It is clear that Israel will win without them. Israel is capable of independently coping with all threats on all fronts,” Bulstein concluded.
