Saudi Arabia says it will not normalise relations with Israel until there is a path to Palestinian statehood

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said on Tuesday that he wouldn't normalise relations with Israel until there was a "clear path" to Palestinian statehood.

"We want to be part of the Abraham Accords. But we want also to be sure that we secure a clear path of two-state solution," the Saudi prince told US President Donald Trump during their meeting in the Oval Office.

"We're going to work on that, to be sure that we can prepare the right situation as soon as possible," he added.

Pressed by Trump, who said that his guest had a "very good feeling" for the Abraham Accords, the prince said: "We want peace for the Israelis. We want peace for the Palestinians." 

"We want them to coexist peacefully in the region, and we will do our best to reach that date."

The United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Morocco in 2020 became the first Arab states to normalise relations with Israel under the Abraham Accords.
