(Defensa.com) After Vladimir Putin last week gave its approval to supply S-300 air defense system to Iran have been quick reactions occur Israel. As discussed above, Israel has strongly criticized the delivery of this air defense system to Iran by Russia, who had good relations in recent years. So much angered the Russian decision Israeli media have reported the possibility that Israel will supply military equipment to Ukraine in response.
Although this possibility has not been officially announced by Israel, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned on Saturday of the possible supply of Israel to Ukraine. He called this idea counterproductive if it is lethal weaponry as it believes it will have no effect other than to increase the level of confrontation and the number of victims to bring the same result. He also took to remember that the S-300 is a defense system so Israel should not consider his defensive ability eroded with the arrival from east to Iran.
Israel and Russia maintained good relations in recent years so that Israel had decided not to sell military equipment or Ukraine or Georgia and Russia had canceled the sale of the S-300 to an Arab country, supposedly Syria, although in 2005 if agreed to sell the Tor M-1, another anti-aircraft missile medium Iran, which does not sit well in Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu phoned Vladimir Putin last 14 to express the grave concern posed to Israel the sale of this air defense system because it believes that providing this sensitive material will serve to embolden Iran and further destabilize more Middle East.Netanyahu reminded Putin that there are certain "red lines" that could not afford such as the arrival of Russian weapons to Hezbollah through Iran or Syria.
The last episode of this tension has occurred Sunday when Israeli newspapers collected statements from official Israeli Ministry of Defense in recognizing that could attack Russian-made military means to prevent Hezbollah came through Iran or Syria. Also stated that Israel is monitoring the movement of Russian material in the area, including antiaircraft missiles SA-22 short-range SA-17 medium-range through Syria Iran could reach its allies in Lebanon.
Recall that the main concern of Israel in relation to the S-300 is that Israel maintains years the trick of taking unilateral military action against Iran if it considers that the nuclear program poses a threat. The presence of S-300 protects the main Iranian nuclear facilities would jeopardize the success of this operation. Moreover Israel has repeatedly warned it will not allow advanced military equipment or chemical weapons could reach the hands of groups like Hezbollah or any other operating in the Syrian conflict and pose a threat to Israel.
