WASHINGTON
Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister said there can be no normalisation of ties with Israel without resolving the Palestinian issue, he told CNN in an interview that aired on Sunday.
Asked if there could be no normal ties without a
path to a credible and irreversible Palestinian state, Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud told
CNN’s Fareed Zakaria: “That’s the only way we’re going to get the benefit. So,
yes, because we need stability
and only stability will come through the resolving the Palestinian issue.”
De-escalation of the conflict in Gaza and halting civilian deaths is a key focus of Saudi Arabia,
the Minister said.
“What we are seeing is Israelis crushing the
civilian population of Gaza,” he said. “This is unacceptable and has to stop.”
