The speech of Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the former leader of the Liberal Democratic Party, who died last year, many years ago - in 2015 - on Israel was circulated on social networks.
Axar.az reports that Zhirinovsky said in his speech that Israel is afraid of Iran.
"Why did Father George Bush refrain from invading Iraq in 1991? Because he understood that many American soldiers would die. But son Bush invaded Iraq together with Israel. The situation is the same now," Zhirinovsky said.
The former party chairman noted that the last threat to Israel is Iran:
"Iran has a population of 70 million (currently 86 million - ed.). 70 per cent of the population is made up of young people. They have missiles that can easily reach Israel, including Moscow. How do you convince Iran to give up its nuclear technology? It turns into a peaceful country during the day and a nuclear weapons-producing country at night. The rockets are flying and nothing is left of Israel. This is a big risk for Israel. He is afraid. Therefore, the blow is inevitable. "Negotiations will be held, but no country will surrender its army."
