The 76th UN General Assembly in New York is entering its second day, with speeches by some of the most important leaders in the Middle East:
Abdullah King of Jordan and Muhammad bin Salman, Saudi Crown Prince. Israel and the Palestinian territories are eagerly awaiting.
The rally opened yesterday (Tuesday) with a speech by US President Joe Biden, in which he noted that "we are far from a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians."
The speakers today, however, are both expected to address the Palestinian issue as well as relations with their neighbors.
They will also likely discuss global issues, with an emphasis on the war on the Corona virus, counterterrorism in their territories and the efforts the countries are making to expand cooperation with the West.
Last April, Abdullah II survived a coup attempt against his kingdom, which also included Prince Hamza, the king's half-brother.
The Saudi heir for his part is still facing the consequences of the assassination of journalist Jamal Khushkji at the Saudi embassy in Istanbul about three years ago, an affair that caused a stir within the royal family, and the loss of Ben Salman's image - who tried to portray the world as a reformist.
King Abdullah of Jordan referred to the war in Gaza and said: "The current situation is simply not sustainable."
In addition, he called for a solution between the two states (Israel and Palestine) based on the borders of 67, with East Jerusalem as the capital.
Regarding terrorism, he said that "the fight against terrorism is not over yet."
