Netanyahu suggests Saudis should establish Palestine as their state

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has suggested that Palestinians should establish their state in Saudi Arabia rather than in their own homeland dismissing any notion of Palestinian sovereignty.

"The Saudis can create a Palestinian state in Saudi Arabia; they have a lot of land over there,” Netanyahu said on Thursday during an interview with Israeli Channel 14 disregarding the long-standing Palestinian demands for self-determination.

When asked whether a Palestinian state was necessary for normalization with Saudi Arabia, he rejected the idea outright framing it as a “security threat to Israel.”

However, the Saudi Foreign Ministry had dismissed Netanyahu’s narrative reiterating that normalization with Israel was off the table unless a Palestinian state was established -- a stance Netanyahu continues to disregard.

During an event, Trump said the US would “take over” Gaza and resettle Palestinians elsewhere under an extraordinary redevelopment plan that he claimed could turn the enclave into “the Riviera of the Middle East.”

He doubled down on his proposal Thursday and said no US soldiers would be needed.

The proposal has been widely condemned by world leaders.
