Current Israeli President Shimon Peres told Barbara Walters on Wednesday, “I think our relations with Obama are in a good shape.”
Appearing to disagree with Republican presidential candidates who say President Obama is working against Israel, Peres, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, said, “There are usually a great deal of speculations… but right now, we act together and I think, in full agreement.”
Israel Defense Minister Ehud Barak agreed last August, telling Fox News, “I can hardly remember a better period of support, American support and backing and cooperation and similar strategic understanding of events around us than what we have right now.”
