According to Channel 10, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman tells American Jewish leaders the Palestinians must accept the peace offers presented to them or “be quiet and stop complaining.”
The Palestinian leadership, over the past four decades, has “squandered opportunities again and again” to reach a peace deal, he is quoted as saying.
The report quotes Salman as saying the Palestinian issue was not pressing for the kingdom, citing the threat of Iran as a far more urgent matter.
“Nonetheless, there must be diplomatic progress between Israel and the Palestinians for us to agree to a normalization of ties [with Israel],” the Saudi crown prince is quoted as saying.
The comments were made in a meeting in New York with US Jewish leaders in late March, according to the report.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
