Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman tells Fox News that “every day we get closer” to the kingdom signing a normalization agreement with Israel.

In an interview that will air in full tonight, MBS says the “Palestinian issue is very important,” as he works to normalize ties with Israel.

In another clip aired ahead of time, the crown prince says Saudi Arabia will have to obtain a nuclear weapon if Iran does.

“If they get one we have to get one,” MBS says.

He says Saudi Arabia is “concerned” when any country acquires a nuclear weapon. However, he suggests that no one would use a nuclear weapon because this would mean starting a “war with the rest of the world.”

“The world cannot see another Hiroshima,” he says.
