Netanyahu raises breakthrough with Saudi Arabia in meeting with US officials
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday said he discussed steps on achieving a breakthrough in relations with Saudi Arabia as part of wide-ranging discussions with U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan in Jerusalem.
Netanyahu said diplomatic relations with Riyadh were discussed as part of the next steps to deepen the Abraham Accords, the normalization agreements brokered during the former Trump administration that established ties between Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.
National security spokesperson Adrienne Watson did not include a reference to the Abraham Accords or Saudi Arabia in a readout of Sullivan’s meeting with Netanyahu, but said that Sullivan underscored President Biden’s commitment to working together with Jerusalem, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain and “promoting a more integrated, prosperous, and secure Middle East region with benefits for all of its people”
