  • New Saudi Poll Shows Sharp Rise in Support for Israel Ties, Despite Caveats by David Pollock
    MENU Policy Analysis / Fikra Forum Correction: New Saudi Poll Shows Sharp Rise in Support for Israel Ties, Despite Caveats by David Pollock Dec 8, 2020 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS David Pollock David Pollock is the Bernstein Fellow at The Washington Institute, focusing on regional political dynamics and related issues. Brief Analysis New polling data provides a window into popular Saudi views of the Abraham Accords and other foreign policy concerns facing the kingdom. midst American and Israeli press reports—and official Saudi denials—of Prime Minister Binyamin A Netanyahu’s recent meeting with Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman in Neom, Saudi Arabia, a reliable new public opinion poll commissioned by The Washington Institute shows that the Saudi public is divided but increasingly open to contacts with Israel. (This corrected version of a November 25 report is based on revised data received from the pollster, after remedying a technical error.) 41% Back UAE/Bahrain Peace with Israel; 37% Back Personal Contacts Asked about September’s peace agreements between Israel and the two Saudi neighbors, the UAE and Bahrain, 41% of the Saudi public call the agreements a “positive development.” A narrow majority (54%), however, label the agreements as negative. The detailed responses are as follows: very positive, 12%; somewhat positive, 29%; somewhat negative, 30%; very negative, 24%; haven’t heard or read enough to say, 1%; don’t know, 2%; no answer, 1%. A plurality of Saudis (37%) also agree, either "somewhat" or "strongly," that “people who want to have business or sports contacts with Israelis should be allowed to do so.” This is quadruple the proportion who agreed with this statement in the previous survey in June 2020, The rapid growth demonstrates that popular attitudes on this supposedly sensitive point are actually quite fluid, probably responding both to new events and official guidance.

  • The Gulf States Relations with Israel and Trump's Plan for Peace
    Regional Programme Gulf States Policy Report No. 6 – April 2020 The Gulf States Relations with Israel and Trump’s Plan for Peace Dr. Mohammad Yaghi Introduction The reaction of the Gulf States to US President Trump’s Peace to Prosperity Plan – also known as the deal of the century – can be summarised in one sentence: the Gulf States support peace between the Palestinians and Israelis, but not the Peace Plan proposed. However, because the Plan is widely believed to have been put forth in the context of increased ties between Israel and the Gulf States – of which, mainly, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and Oman – there is a belief that these states might exert pressure on the Palestinians to accept the Plan. Furthermore, there is a belief that the Gulf States are actively working to normalise relations with Israel. The analysis below will focus primarily on the evolution of the relations between Israel and both the UAE and KSA in order to advance three main arguments. The first is that the Gulf States will not accept a Plan that is rejected by the Palestinians. Further, any pressure they might impose on the Palestinians related to this Plan will be time-bound to the period of Trump’s presidency. The second argument is related to the widespread belief that the UAE and KSA need Israel for a host of reasons including its mighty army and technological advancement so as to counter Iran’s influence in the region. Against this conviction, this article argues that the two countries need Israel mainly because they believe it can influence the trajectory of US foreign policy in the region.

ABSTRACT Israel and Saudi Arabia don't have any official diplomatic relations. Notwithstanding, news reports have surfaced showing in the background conciliatory and knowledge collaboration between the nations, while their association with the Palestinian Authority and Mahmoud Abbas is disintegrating. is an arranged 10,230-square-mile transnational city and financial zone to be built in the outskirt district of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Egypt KEY WORDS: official diplomatic relations , background conciliatory and knowledge collaboration. INTRODUCTION : Since the 1980s, Saudi officialdom has exhibited a moderately placating position towards Israel. Sovereign Fahd's drive of 1981, the Fez design of 1982, and King Abdullah's arrangement, which turned into the Arab Peace Initiative in 2002, all offered acknowledgment to Israel in return for a Palestinian state and full withdrawal from all regions caught in 1967. Israeli pioneers freely exhibited some intrigue, and the press revealed mystery gatherings amongst Israeli and Saudi authorities in 2006-2007 with an eye towards making the activity more acceptable to Israel. In 2008 Olmert offered to incorporate Saudis in an advisory group of religious pioneers regulating Jerusalem's blessed destinations. In May 2013, it detailed that a guard understanding was in progress between Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, including the sharing of radar station and rocket resistance data.

Increasing interdependencies Amr Adly Executive Summary The Geopolitical developments that have taken place since 2011 have reinforced the already deep security and economic interdependencies between Egypt and Saudi Arabia. On the one hand, ruling elites in Saudi Arabia perceive an allied Egypt as central for the Gulf external and internal security and stability. On the other, Egypt has grown increasingly dependent on the Gulf’s oil-rich nations in order to keep its economy afloat, re-launch economic growth and fix its chronic difficulties in balancing payments. The current geopolitical landscape is conducive to the creation of a sustainable and long-range security arrangement between the two countries that tackles both internal questions of regime security and external questions relating to the Iranian and Jihadi threats.
