TEL AVIV, November 22. /TASS/. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
told Russian President Vladimir Putin during their phone conversation on
Tuesday that Israel wouldn’t accept Iran’s attempts to gain a foothold in
Syria, his press secretary said.

"A conversation took place and it lasted for around half an hour. They
discussed Syria and also Iran’s attempts to consolidate on Syrian soil,"
Anna Jonathan-Leus said. "The prime minister maintained his position on
Israel’s security and the non-acceptance of the Iranian forces’
consolidation in Syria."

The Kremlin’s press service said on Tuesday Putin and Netanyahu discussed
what the future may hold for the Middle East region, first of all in the
context of the war on terror’s final stage in Syria. They also hashed over
practical issues linked to the situation in the southern de-escalation zone
in Syria. The sides expressed interest in bolstering mutually advantageous
cooperation in different areas, including contacts between intelligence
agencies.

The phone conversation was held at the initiative of Israel, the Kremlin
press service said.
