Alwaght- Saudi Arabia’s crown prince Mohammad bin Salman confirmed Israelis’ rights to live peacefully on occupied Palestinian territories, as Palestinians are staging a six-week protest, dubbed “The Great March of Return,” demanding the right to return for Palestinians driven out of their homeland.
Saudi regime’s king-in-waiting, in an interview with American magazine The Atlantic, said “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.”
Despite the fact that most of Muslim nations, including Saudi Arabia, do not recognize Israeli regime, the young Saudi crown prince, who desperately seeks US support in his journey to throne, said “We have religious concerns about the fate of the holy mosque in Jerusalem and about the rights of the Palestinian people. This is what we have. We don’t have any objection against any other people”.
“There are a lot of interests we share with Israel and if there is peace, there would be a lot of interest between Israel and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries,” Prince Mohammed added.
Saudi Arabia opened its air space for the first time to a commercial flight to Israeli regime last month.
In November, an Israeli cabinet member disclosed covert contacts with Saudi Arabia, a rare acknowledgment of long-rumoured secret dealings which Riyadh still denies.
