Ukrani ambassador to Israel attacks 'deeply disappointing' Benny Gantz
Ukrainian Ambassador to Israel Yevgen Kornichuk lashed out on Tuesday at "deeply disappointing" Defense Minister Benny Gantz, after Gantz's office abruptly and inexplicably canceled a scheduled call with his Ukrainian counterpart.
In an interview with Maariv, Kornichuk said he was "deeply disappointed" by the Israelis when Ukraine was told the call between Gantz and Oleksii Reznikov, which was scheduled back in August, would not go through.
"They did not provide an explanation for the cancelation,"66yg Kornichuk added. "Going forward, I don't think our defense minister will be in contact with Gantz."
The Ukrainian ambassador previously hit out at another Israeli minister in Avigdor Liberman, when he accused the finance minister of "neutrality" on the Ukraine-Russia War back in September.
"[Israel and Ukraine] do not have a 'quiet understanding' nor are there talks going on behind the scenes regarding our request for weapons," the Ukrainian ambassador said on Ukraine's hopes of receiving Israeli-made weaponry.
