"We cannot forget for a single minute that Iran threatens every day to annihilate Israel," said the Israeli prime minister
Netanyahu and Putin have kept in close contact in recent years, with the Israeli leader visiting Moscow four times in the last 16 months.
Two leaders face first tête-à-tête today.

The report comes on the heels of the US election campaign, from which allegations have emerged of Russian hacking against the US.
Rouhani is to meet with Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin and Azeri President Ilham Aliyev at a first-of-its-kind summit

Putin also spoke on the importance of synchronizing the efforts of the Arab League with those of the United Nations, the United States, the European Union and Russia.
