Ukraine’s President Zelensky asked Prime Minister Netanyahu for weapons in an exchange for support against a UN resolution sending Israel to the world court. Bibi refused.
Netanyahu’s refusal caused Ukraine to abstain instead of
voting against. However, Netanyahu’s “no” sent signals to Putin that Israel is
willing to remain neutral in the current NATO-Russia war being played out in
Ukraine.
The reasons for Bibi’s pushback against Ukraine is connected
to Putin’s cover for Iranian expansion into Syria and Lebanon. Bibi does not
need Russia to help Iran anymore than they already are. Rebuffing Zelensky also
sends a message to the USA, that Israel is staying neutral when it comes to
Ukraine.
Having said all this, Israel is sending a massive amount of
humanitarian aid for the Ukrainians including a field hospital set up on the
Polish border with Ukraine
