Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich: A peace deal with Saudi Arabia cannot include hope for a Palestinian state

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich expressed support for a potential peace agreement with Saudi Arabia but firmly opposed any provisions that could pave the way for Palestinian statehood.

"I support a peace deal with Saudi Arabia, but it can't include giving hope to the Palestinian Authority and the Arabs in Judea and Samaria and Gaza about a path for a Palestinian state," Smotrich stated.
