RIYADH (Dispatches) –
Former head of the Zionist regime’s military espionage center General Amos Yadlin has called for the normalization of relations with Saudi Arabia in the wake of the increasing security challenges facing the occupying regime.
In an article published on the website of Hebrew-language Channel 12 television channel, Yadlin stressed that obstacles to normalization of ties between the occupying regime and the oil-rich kingdom must be overcome as the occupying regime is facing serious challenges, especially in the face of growing Iranian influence in the Middle East.
He said the signing of a normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia “would consolidate Israel’s position in the region, and would push the United States to toughen stance on Iran.”
Yadlin referred to the Negev Summit, which recently brought together the foreign ministers of the Zionist regime, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Bahrain and the United States, noting that the event lacked Saudi Arabia as an important Arab country.
The former Zionist military attaché to Washington added that it was difficult to bring Saudi Arabia to the summit, amid the Riyadh regime’s strangled relations with the United States and its demands on the Palestinian issue.
Yadlin noted that bin Salman had already stated that he saw the occupying regime as a potential partner.
“However, the kingdom’s participation in any official political and security alliance that includes Israel will require significant progress on the Palestinian issue,” he said.
Last month, Saudi Crown Prince and de facto ruler Mohammed bin Salman said he sees the occupying regime as a potential ally with shared interests, not an enemy, as Tel Aviv is working behind the scenes towards normalization of diplomatic relations with the Persian Gulf kingdom.
“For us, we hope that the conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians is solved,” the prince told U.S. monthly magazine The Atlantic, according to remarks carried by the official Saudi Press Agency.
“We don’t look at Israel as an enemy, we look to them as a potential ally, with many interests that we can pursue together,” Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler said.
“But we have to solve some issues before we get to that,” he added.
Earlier, a high-ranking official at the Zionist regime’s ministry of foreign affairs had said the regime was working clandestinely towards normalization of diplomatic relations with Indonesia and Saudi Arabia.
