Axios claims the self-governing organization’s green light for the Riyadh-Tel Aviv agreement.
American and Zionist sources have claimed that the Palestinian Authority has handed Saudi Arabia a list of their demands from the compromise agreement between Tel Aviv and Riyadh.
American and Zionist sources have claimed that the Palestinian Authority has delivered to Riyadh a list that includes the demands of this organization in any compromise agreement between the Zionist regime and Saudi Arabia.
The Axios website, citing 6 American and Zionist sources, reported that among the demands of the self-governing organizations are the granting of more control over certain parts of the occupied West Bank and the reopening of the American consulate in Jerusalem.
Axios claims that the self-governing organization delivered this list to Saudi Arabia sometime ago this year. The American media considers this action as the green light of these organizations to the talks led by the United States to advance reconciliation talks between Riyadh and Tel Aviv.
Axios also claimed that this position shows the turning of the Palestinian Authority from its position in 2020, which harshly criticized the UAE and Bahrain for normalizing relations with the Zionist regime under the so-called “Ibrahim Agreements”.
The American media writes that if the Palestinian Authority opposes the Riyadh-Tel Aviv agreement, it will be more difficult for Saudi Arabia to gain support for it both inside this country and throughout the Arab world.
According to Axios, “Hussein Al-Sheikh”, the senior adviser of Mahmoud Abbas, the head of the Palestinian Authority, who is in charge of the consultations on this issue with Saudi Arabia, delivered the list of demands of this organization to the National Security Adviser of Saudi Arabia three months ago.
The self-governing organization demands that the Zionist regime change the status of parts of Area C in the occupied West Bank. Currently, the control of this area is completely in the hands of the Zionist regime. The Palestinian side demands that the situation in Area C be changed to the same as situation B, where the control of security issues is in the hands of the Zionist regime and the control of urban issues is in the hands of the self-governing organizations.
In explaining this plan, Axios wrote that such an action would increase the footprint of the self-governing organization in the West Bank.
The Palestinian side’s list also includes the reopening of the US consulate in Jerusalem. This consulate was closed during the presidency of Donald Trump, the former president of the United States. US President Joe Biden promised to open this consulate, but he refused to do so due to the opposition of the Zionist regime.
Another demand of the self-governing organization is that Saudi Arabia opens its consulate in Jerusalem. Some time ago, Riyadh appointed its ambassador to Jordan as a non-resident consul general in Jerusalem.
As another request, the self-governing organization has called for steps to be taken by the United Nations to recognize Palestine as a member state. They have also asked Saudi Arabia to resume financial support to the self-governing organization, which was stopped a few years ago. The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday that Saudi Arabia is ready to restore that financial support.
The sources cited by Axios have claimed that the Palestinian side has demanded that Israel explicitly agree to at least some of these steps and accept that the Israeli-Palestinian negotiations begin with a clear time frame.
About two months ago, an American publication reported that “Mohammed bin Salman” rejected the White House’s request to normalize relations with the Zionist regime by the end of this year.
Analysts have previously said that the effectiveness of the far-right cabinet in occupied Palestine, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, has caused some countries that had started normalizing relations with Tel Aviv to suspend it.
Some other analysts believe that the agreement between Iran and Saudi Arabia has caused the normalization of relations between Riyadh and the Zionist regime to face additional challenges.
Shortly after the agreement between Iran and Saudi Arabia, the Zionist newspaper “Israel Hum” described it as a defeat for Tel Aviv and wrote that Israel’s internal problems and the geopolitical changes that began with the convergence of Tehran and Riyadh have made Israel see itself in a situation that it expected. has not had
This newspaper also stated that this convergence has stopped other countries’ plans to normalize relations with Israel.
Many of the Democratic representatives in the Senate, who should probably vote for parts of the agreement between Riyadh and Tel Aviv, are staunch critics of both the government of Saudi Arabia and the Zionist regime.
The normalization of relations between the Zionist regime and Saudi Arabia faces other obstacles besides the factors mentioned above. The source told Axios last month that one of the biggest obstacles to a comprehensive agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel is Riyadh’s request to increase its military cooperation with the United States and its access to highly advanced weapons systems.
