Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an address to the U.S. Congress proposed to create a security pact similar to NATO in the Middle East.
According to the Israeli PM, the U.S. and Israel can forge a security alliance in the Middle East to counter Iran.
Commenting on Netanyahu's idea, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that it is unlikely that such confrontational mechanisms are needed.
Re-emphasizing the need to understand the details of the proposal, the spokesman noted NATO “has a pronounced and systemic confrontational orientation.”
