Israel's Foreign Ministry summoned Russian Ambassador Anatoly Viktorov on Wednesday over his remarks to a local newspaper.
"The problem in the region is not Iranian activities," Viktorov said Tuesday in an interview with The Jerusalem Post.
"It's a lack of understanding between countries and non-compliance with UN resolutions in the Israel-Arab and Israel-Palestinian conflict".
Neither the Israeli authorities nor the Russian Embassy in Israel have issued a statement regarding the development.
