News Brief

(IsraelNN.com) Israel nipped in the bud Russia's intention to hold a post-Annapolis summit in Moscow, using diplomatic backchannels at the recent donor-nation conference in Paris to block the plan and exclude it from the final statement at the summit.

Israel is not happy with Russia's delivery of nuclear fuel to Iran earlier in the week for the Russian-built Bushehr nuclear reactor.

A government source quoted by Ha'aretz said "There are other things that the Russians are doing that we aren't thrilled with, but at this point we have no plans to create a crisis."
