Israel PM adviser says road to deal on Saudi

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s national security adviser on Monday said the road to normalising ties with Saudi Arabia was “still long” while members of his hard-right cabinet ruled out concessions to Palestinians as part of any deal.
U.S. officials have sought for months to reach what would be a historic agreement that Netanyahu has said would be a huge step toward ending the Arab-Israeli conflict but that Riyadh has signalled would rest on Palestinian statehood.
U.S. President Joe Biden last week dispatched his national security adviser to Riyadh to discuss a possible deal, and on Friday said a rapprochement was “maybe under way”.
