Egypt condemns Israeli call for Palestinian state in Saudi Arabia
Egypt has condemned comments by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu in which he suggested that a Palestinian state could be established on Saudi territory, reported Middle East Eye on February 8th.
Benjamin Netanyahu said in a February 6th interview with Israel’s Channel 14 “the Saudis can create a Palestinian state in Saudi Arabia, they have a lot of land over there.”
The remarks followed Riyadh reiterating that it would only normalise relations with Israel if there was a clear pathway towards Palestinian statehood.
