Saudi ties ‘inevitable,’ Kushner says
President Donald Trump’s aide and son-in-law Jared Kushner says it is only a matter of time for Saudi Arabia to normalize relations with Israel after Morocco became the latest Arab nation to do so.
“Israel and Saudi Arabia coming together and having full normalization at this point is an inevitability, but the timeframe, obviously, will come — is something that has to be worked out,” Kushner told reporters.
He says it will require “strong US leadership in the region.”
“If you look at where we’ve come in last six months, the region has essentially gone from a solid to a liquid and it feels like there’s a lot more fluidity,” he adds.
