A Israeli minister said Israel is secretly in touch with Saudi Arabia. The minister expressed this in a radio interview on Sunday.
This is said in a report by Reuters news agency. Saudi Arabia's tensions with Iran have recently been created on the Lebanese issue. During this time, the secret to Israel-Saudi contacts was revealed.
There has been a rumor for long with Israel's secret relationship with Saudi Arabia, and nobody has publicly acknowledged it on behalf of both the countries. Israeli energy minister Juval Steinitz revealed it. The Saudi government has not reacted immediately to this comment. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked for a comment, but he did not respond immediately.
Energy Minister Juwal Steynitz acknowledged the relationship with Saudi Arabia in an interview with 'Army Radio', but the relationship did not reveal what the relationship was. When asked about why Israel wants to hide the relationship, he did not even answer.
Both Saudi Arabia and Israel consider Iran as the main threat to the Middle East. In view of the increase in tension between Saudi Arabia and Iran, the idea that Saudi Arabia and Israel are working together is mutually beneficial.
In 1967, during the Arab-Israeli war, Israel occupied Arab lands. Relations with Israel will depend on the principle of returning the territories, Saudi Arabia has been maintaining such a policy.
