Israel, Russia sign pact to fight terror jointly
2004-09-06
Israel and Russia today signed an agreement to fight terrorism and agreed to explore every possible means to step up intelligence gathering to root out the "global scourge." The bilateral cooperation agreement, the first such measure after the deadly terrorist attack in a school in Russia's southern city of Beslan, was signed between visiting Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and his Israeli counterpart Silvan Shalom here.

Both the countries condemned the ghastly attack and pledged to "establish a united front in the battle against terrorism." Lavrov, who is on a day-long visit to the west Asian country, said Israel was the first country to offer help and support in the wake of the terror attack, which has so far claimed over 330 lives, including so many children. The Israeli offer to share intelligence data with Russia would give a boost to the fight against global terror, Lavrov told reporters after signing the joint declaration with Shalom. In a similar vein, Shalom called upon for cooperation "using every diplomatic, economic, intelligence and military means at our disposal. We must establish a united front against the murderers of children".

Emphasising that Israel and Russia share an interest in intensifying bilateral cooperation in this field, Shalom said Israeli institutions and agencies have extended offers to assist in providing medical and other assistance in the wake of the tragedy that hit Russia. It's the "Other Assistance" that'll set the turbans spinning.
Israel intel and training will be a big help.
