Israeli media discloses the Saudi role in the normalization between Morocco, Israel

The Israeli "Channel 12" said in a report, quoting diplomatic sources, "Riyadh had a role in the preparation of the normalization agreement between Morocco and Israel."

According to the channel, the possibility of concluding a similar deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia in the near future is "a possibility."

For its part, the Israeli Broadcasting Corporation "Channel 13" stated that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia joined the White House to secure normalization deals between Israel and other countries, and expected Indonesia and Oman to be the next two in the normalization of relations.

The commission said the process aims to pave the way for an eventual Israeli-Saudi normalization, which is unlikely to happen in the coming weeks.

In addition, the Moroccan Minister of Industry, Trade and Economy, Hafeez al-Ami, set next Monday a date for contacting Israeli investors who have shown a desire to invest in the desert, and said: "The contacts will include all Moroccan-Israeli investors who have a desire to invest in the Kingdom," adding that " Many of them wanted to invest in Morocco, and when that was not possible, they sought refuge in other countries and today they will return. "

The Moroccan minister revealed that the areas of investment expected to be chosen by the Israelis are mainly in the field of technology, pharmacy and medicine, in addition to agricultural materials, electronics, and related matters and their security.

In the context of normalization, the Israeli El Al Airlines announced earlier that it was studying the possibility of operating direct flights to Morocco.

Last Thursday, December 10, US President Donald Trump announced that Morocco and Israel had agreed to restore diplomatic relations and flights between the two countries, making Morocco the fourth Arab country to announce normalization with Israel this year after the UAE, Bahrain and Sudan.

For his part, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed the "historic" agreement and said: "We will first establish liaison offices, and then direct diplomatic relations between the two countries, and soon direct flights between the two countries."

For his part, the Moroccan monarch offered "many thanks" to the American president for his "historical position" on Western Sahara.
