BREAKING: Russian President, #Putin Breaks Silence on #IsraelHamasWar—-Russian President Vladimir Putin has blamed United States foreign policy for the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.
In his first public statement on the conflict, which has seen Israeli strikes on Gaza after Hamas militants attacked southern Israel, Putin accused Washington of a pro-Israel policy that worked against the interests of the Palestinian people.
“I think many will agree with me that this is a clear example of the failure of U.S. policy in the Middle East,” Putin said at a Kremlin meeting on Tuesday with Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia’ Al Sudani.
Putin said that the U.S. had tried “to monopolize” the conflict, but was “unfortunately unconcerned with finding compromises acceptable for both sides,” according to a transcript on the Kremlin website.
He said that the U.S. was not “taking into account the fundamental interests of the Palestinian people,” such as “the need to implement the decision of the UN Security Council on the creation of an independent, sovereign Palestinian state.”
