Amid preparations for Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s upcoming visit to the White House in ten days, a senior member of the Saudi royal family has stated that while normalization with Israel is not currently on the agenda, a significant American effort is expected to “lay the groundwork” for renewing the process. “The goal is to thaw the ice between the countries,” he said, adding that this is a US initiative aimed at narrowing the gaps created by the war in Gaza and bringing the sides closer together. According to the report, the upcoming visit by bin Salman is expected to include in-depth discussions with US President Donald Trump and his team on security, economic, and regional issues, as well as the question of expanding the circle of Arab nations maintaining ties with Israel-an initiative the Saudi royal family has been evaluating with great caution since the outbreak of the war.
