AMMAN — The White House National Security Council's
strategic communications coordinator, John Kirby, announced that negotiations
between Israel and Saudi Arabia have "hammered out ... a basic
framework" for normalizing relations between the two countries.
"There's a lot of common denominators that are driving
us forward in this process," Kirby said Friday. "One of them is, of
course, Iran, and the continued concerns that Israel has about Iran, Saudi
Arabia has about Iran, and certainly we have about Iran," according to the
Denver Gazzette.
President Joe Biden and his administration are pushing
towards normalizing relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia, a move that
could provide the Kingdom with American security assurances in exchange for its
recognition of Israel.
