there are a number of reports that president zelensky could pay a visit to israel. how likely do you think that is? if you asked me that 2a hours ago or so, it would be more likely, but apparently his visit was leaked by israeli television and there are concerns from his side about security here. he wanted that to come up when he landed here in israel. but he wanted to come here earlier. i think he was rebuffed by the israeli side. he was one of the first to call prime minister netanyahu and offer his support. he has also equated putin's invasion of ukraine to also hamas�*s attacks here on israel. so one other quick thing is one of the israeli defence correspondents i spoke to said if mr zelensky does come here he has high popularity ratings, he has proved himself as a wartime president. maybe he will want to stick around a bit longer and give mr netanyahu some advice. that is a really interesting point because mr netanyahu is coming to his own war off the back of a lot more political baggage. and ijust wonder what is the sense that you are getting from people, sp
