Israel’s President Isaac Herzog called Saturday for Saudi Arabia to normalise ties with his country as that would be a win against Hamas.
Herzog told the Munich Security Conference that one of the aims of Hamas when it attacked Israel was to disrupt talks to establish ties with Riyadh.
“That is why moving on with Saudi Arabia will clearly be a victory over what Hamas did,” he argued.
“And that is why I truly believe that moving forward to normalisation and making whatever efforts that can be made is a very important, historical opportunity.”
