Chief Rabbi Calls for More Cooperation

Russia's chief Rabbi Berel Lazar has urged Israel to develop partnership relations with Russia. "Russia has influence in the Arab world and Israel should be taking the assistance that Russia may give in promoting a dialogue in the Middle East into account," he said at a Thursday meeting at the Moscow Jewish Community Center with the new Russian ambassador to Israel Pyotr Stegny.

The present situation in the Middle East and the rest of the world shows the need to expand Israel's political and economic interaction with countries of the region," he said.

Stegny said that his priorities will be promoting Russian-Israeli cooperation in high tech and promoting an increase in pilgrimages to the Holy Land.

The sides agreed that the expansion of business contacts between Israel and Arab countries with Russian mediation can become an effective instrument for resolving many problems in the region, especially in conditions of the growth of tension around Iran.
