Russia has long been balanced in the Middle East. He also had a relationship with Iran, and also with Israel, while both countries are staunch enemies among themselves. Now there is war in both. Meanwhile, it seems that Moscow may distance from Tel Aviv for its business interests from Iran, but it did not happen. Recently, the President of Russia clearly said that Israel is a country of Russian speakers in a way, in such a situation they will think about it.
There are many questions here
– Where did millions of Russian speakings come from in small countries Israel?
– Are these Jews people, or were they migrating from the Soviet Union?
– Did Russia and Israel’s relations better because of them?
Putin is giving a very careful statement in Tehran and Tel Aviv’s Fasad. Somewhere his Israeli love was also visible. This is strange because America is also with Israel. In such a situation, the first thought comes that Russia will tell the distance from such a country. But not! Putin often expressed his attachment to Tel Aviv. The reason for this is that in this country, a large number of Russian language speaks.
Recently he said- About 20 lakh people of the Soviet Union era live in Israel. The country has become almost Russian language speakers. And this thing will always be remembered in Russia’s modern history. That is, Putin is associated with old threads, whether and Iran-Israel is not seen in favor of any one in the fight. But how did Russian speaks reach Israel?
Today, there are about 2 million people in Israel whose native language is Russian, or which has come from the former Soviet Union (USSR). The total population of this country is around one crore, that is, if we look broadly, 2 out of every 10 people speak Russian language. Many of these people are now Israeli citizens. They are involved in politics, army, business and media. In all the big cities including Tel Aviv, the Russian population will be seen more there.
Violence took place in Russia at one time
In the 19th century Russia, there was heavy violence on Jews. Actually it has happened that by the end of the 18th century, the Jews were less there. But when Russia divides Poland between 1772 and 1795, millions of Jews, who previously lived in Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine, come under Russia. That is, a community has come in Russia, whose religion, manner and language were also different.
This exasperation went to the Russians. He was seen like outsiders. Even the order was found that they can live in the border areas. They could neither come and go to cities like Moscow, St. Petersburg, nor could they take property there. Due to this, he came into a kind of captivity. Even after this, the anger did not end. Common people also came into the fight.
Migration started like this
This was a battle of cultural difference, in which non-Jewish people overshadowed the Jews. Their women and girls were raped, the property started being looted and murdered. According to Holocaast Encyclopedia, in this violence named Pogrom, the entire Soviet Union turned against the Jews. Lakhs of people were killed in no time. During the second world war, a large population of Jews living in Europe was killed. Meanwhile, Israel became a separate Jewish country and started going towards Tel Aviv, who believed in this religion.
Jews were not allowed to go to Israel during the Soviet period. He was called refundan. However, the situation changed with the breakdown of Soviet. With its disintegration in ninety, millions of Jews migrated to Israel. Meanwhile, Israel also made a law of return to call its people. It says that any Jew, or its first degree family, such as someone like a grandparents, can get citizenship in Israel. Many people came to Israel with the help of this law. They spoke Russian but their religion or roots were Jews.
Did these Russian speakers change the Israeli-Russia relationship
Yes, to a great extent. During the Soviet Union era, Jews used to have violence in Russia, but as soon as the relationship started to improve. As the number of Russian-speaking Jews increased in Israel, Russia felt that it has a cultural footprint in Israel. People born or speaking his language live there.
This was a blood relationship in a way, which remained even after breaking the house. Now Putin repeatedly insists on this. Even they kept on making statements on Israeli aggression. For example, if Tel Aviv rages the neighbors, Putin ignores it, or remains soft. Even now, he showed anger on America for the attack on Iran, but did not say anything about Israel.
