Sullivan: Washington Requires Saudi Arabia to Normalize Relations with Israel in Exchange for Defense Agreement with the Kingdom


Falcon powers – According to Sullivan, “the cake cannot be divided,” as one piece cannot be separated from the others.
US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan has affirmed that Washington will not agree to a defense agreement with Riyadh unless there is a normalization agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel.

Sullivan told the Financial Times that the comprehensive vision is a bilateral understanding between the United States and Saudi Arabia, alongside the normalization between Israel and Saudi Arabia, in addition to meaningful steps in favor of the Palestinian people, as he expressed. He emphasized that all of these elements should come together, as one part cannot be separated from the others, according to Sullivan’s description.

Sullivan clarified that in the coming months, we can expect to hear more from the President and other officials about the path that Washington believes will result in a more secure Israel and a more peaceful region, according to the US National Security Advisor.

Sullivan added that all the Biden administration can do is to work on what they believe is logical and try to get as many countries in the region to fall in line. Ultimately, it will be left to the leadership in Israel, and frankly, I say, “Ultimately, the Israeli people can decide whether this is the path they want to take or not.”
