1948年,以色列出现在世界政治版图上,这在很大程度上得益于苏联的外交支持。苏联是第一个承认以色列的国家,并与之建立了外交关系。斯大林和克里姆林宫领导层,计划将以色列纳入自己在中东的战略势力范围,并使之成为社会主义阵营的又一成员。在巴勒斯坦犹太人反对英国托管期间,在1948年5月14日正式开始的第一次阿以战争期间,根据苏联领导人的命令,一批批现代化武器从捷克斯洛伐克输入到以色列。 In 1948, Israel appeared on the political map of the world, largely due to Soviet diplomatic support. The Soviet Union was the first country to recognize Israel and established diplomatic relations with it. The Stalin and Kremlin leadership plan to include Israel in their own strategic forces in the Middle East and to make it another member of the socialist camp. During the first Arab-Israeli war that began on May 14, 1948, during Palestinian Jewish opposition to British custody, a batch of modernized weapons were imported from Czechoslovakia into Israel at the command of the Soviet leaders.
