Washington: US President Donald Trump has shocked everyone by making a statement. He made a controversial statement on the Gaza strip. Apart from this, he also said that Saudi Arabia has never demanded a Palestinian country. Trump wants to normalize the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Israel in his second term. Which Bidon also tried in this direction, but on October 7, the conversation derailed due to Israel and Hamas war. However, Saudi Arabia has now clarified about Trump’s statement. Saudi Arabia said that in any deal, it is necessary to take the status of Palestinian country or related steps.
On Tuesday, Trump said that Saudi has not made any such demand. When asked if Saudi Arabia had demanded the state of Palestinian, Trump said ‘No, he did not’. When asked again whether Saudi has at least demanded a way towards the state, Trump said ‘Everyone is demanding the same thing – peace. In a few hours, Saudi Arabia issued a statement dismissing Trump’s statements. The statement said that there would be no generalization relationship with Israel without Palestinian state. This is not a new situation that Saudi has just adopted, but it has been their position over the years.
