Cheney Tells Peres Russia Supplying Arms to Hizbullah
U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney has reportedly told Israeli President Shimon Peres during a meeting in Italy that Russia is selling arms to Syria and Iran knowing that they are being channeled to Hizbullah.
The Israeli news agency Ynetnews reported that aides to Israel's president said Cheney told him Russian leaders are aware Tehran and Damascus are buying weapons for "terrorist groups" in Iraq and Hizbullah.

"Russian arms-dealing has endangered the prospects for peace and freedom in the region," Cheney was quoted as saying at the Ambrosetti Conference in Cernobbio, Italy on Saturday.

He also criticized during the conference of political and business leaders Russia's "aggressive moves and diplomatic reversals" and its recent invasion of Georgia to protect the breakaway region of South Ossetia.
