Local Editor

Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman [MBS] has recognized "Israel", stressing that "Israelis" are entitled to their own land.

In an interview with the The Atlantic published on Monday, MBS said, "I believe that each people, anywhere, has a right to live in their peaceful nation. I believe the Palestinians and the 'Israelis' have the right to have their own land."

"But we have to have a peace agreement to assure the stability for everyone and to have normal relations," he added.

He added that kingdom has no problems with Jews and that "there are a lot of interests we share with ‘Israel'."

He further noted that Saudi Arabia would establish economic ties with the Tel Aviv regime after conflict with the Palestinian Authority is settled.

The announcement is the latest step in the kingdom's path moving towards normalization of diplomatic relations with the Tel Aviv regime.

On Friday, MBS met with the leaders of a number of pro-"Israeli" lobbying groups during his tour of the United States.

According to a leaked copy of his itinerary, the "Israeli" Haaretz daily reported that bin Salman had conferred with officials from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), Stand Up for "Israel" (ADL), the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA), Presidents' Conference, B'nai B'rith and the American Jewish Committee (AJC).

Speaking in an interview with France 24 television news network on December 13, 2017, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said the kingdom has a "roadmap" to establish full diplomatic ties with the Tel Aviv regime.

The "Israeli" military's chief-of-staff, Gadi Eizenkot, recently said the regime was ready to share intelligence with Saudi Arabia on Iran.
