Netanyahu called Putin to stop Iran's S300 deal
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to stop Russia from completing a deal to supply Iran with the S300 missile system.
The Israelis are worried as they have detected a change in stance by the Russian leadership. Russia had earlier agreed not to export the missiles to Iran.
But during the visit of Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman to Moscow several weeks ago, he was told by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev that Russia has a signed contract with Iran and some payments had already been made.
