The possibility of advancing an agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia is a central issue in the talks held by senior Biden administration officials in both countries. A diplomatic source told Israel Hayom: "Recent developments in the region will ultimately lead to strengthening ties between Jerusalem and Washington" The ball is still on the American side, which has not yet formulated answers to the list of demands raised by Riyadh as a condition for normalization.

Israel believes that the arrival of Sullivan, Hochstein and Kruger is intended to send the message that the United States is not abandoning the Middle East.
