I have noted, several times, that Official Russia is much quieter this time around, than they ever have been in the past. Other than a few denounciations, they haven’t done much, especially at the UN.
IMO, this is as much due to the “New” relationship between Bibi and Putin, as it is to poke a stick in Obama’s eye, who DEFINATELY seems to be favoring Hamas.
You are correct.
Acting out of character, Russia will not take Turkey’s side in any conflict between them and Israel. On the surface Russia may make a bit of disingenuous noise in support of Turkey...but it will just be noise.
Russia is pissed at the actions of our feckless president and looking for any way to embarrass him.
