US, Saudi Pace Up Defence Pact Talks, Will Israel Give in to Pressure? | Vantage with Palki Sharma

The US and Saudi Arabia are close to finalising a defence pact aimed at a potential normalisation of ties between Riyadh and Israel. The agreement would see Riyadh receive military protection from the US in exchange for closer ties with Israel. A key sticking point is the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Following the destruction in Gaza, the kingdom is demanding Israel to end the war and agree to a pathway for a Palestinian state.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has previously rejected such proposals. The US and Saudi Arabia are reportedly planning to pressure Israeli PM Netanyahu by offering him a stark choice: join the deal and gain a new diplomatic ally and substantial investments, or be left behind and lose those benefits. They are even prepared to move forward without Israel if necessary.
Palki Sharma tells you more.

    Wonderful news channel. So intelligent. Finally, other countries get to speak out about news truthfully without influence, even censorship
  • @hilaryagu405
    The main stream media will not carry these information. Thank u for sharing
  • But why? Why can't Ghana lobby for the her heritage to remain at home where it belongs? Why do colonizers always fight to keep what they slole? France is fighting to keep West Africa rights to print their own money? How is this not continued colonization? When a thief is caught with whatever they have stolen, the law condenm the thief and order restitution of the stolen goods to the rightful owner or go to jail. This is nauseating.
  • There was a time in the Ukraine war when women and children were allowed to have free passes, what about Palestinians.

    we love freedom in America. Let them raise their point. Now it's time the USA needs to get its independence from Israel just like how the USA got the independence from the British.

    India doesn't need foreign workers, but Indians are everywhere on this planet! Yet, India is not xenophobic?
