(Worthy News) – Saudi Arabia maintains its policy of not making ties with Israel official until there is peace with the Palestinians, Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan said on Wednesday.

Bin Farhan’s remarks were the first comments from a Saudi official on Israel and the UAE’s normalization agreement announced last week.

“Saudi Arabia affirms its commitment to peace as a strategic option based on the Arab Peace Initiatives,” he said.

The Arab Peace Initiative involves a full Israeli withdrawal to pre-1967 lines, including dividing Jerusalem. It also calls for all Palestinian refugees of the 1948 War of Independence and their descendants, of which the UN says there are about five million, to be granted the right of return. The plan, also known as the Saudi Initiative, offers Israel peace and normalization with Arab states in exchange for accepting it. [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
