Saudi foreign minister reiterates Kingdom’s position on Israel

DAVOS, 25 May 2022, (TON): Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan reiterated the Kingdom’s stance regarding normalization with Israel at the World Economic Forum that there is no change despite recent unconfirmed media reports suggesting otherwise.

Prince Faisal told “I’ve addressed that several times in the past and nothing has changed in how we view the subject. I think we have always seen normalisation as the end result, but the end result of a path.”

He added “we always envisioned that there will be full normalisation with Israel, and I’ve said before that a full normalisation between us and Israel, between the region and Israel, will bring immense benefits - we won’t be able to reap those benefits unless we address the issue of Palestine.”

Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Al-Safadi chimed in as well and said “the key issue that we should be looking at here is the absolute no political horizon for resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.”
