"Peace with Saudi Arabia is within reach," says Deputy Minister of Regional Cooperation Ayoob Kara (Likud). Kara made his comment during a speech at an opening ceremony for the new technological center in Emek Hamayanot.
His speech claimed that "The creation of an international industrial area is a historical landmark in the peaceful relationship between Israel and Jordan. The joint goal of Israel and other countries in the region is to bring about new partnerships with additional countries that see eye-to-eye with Israel about strategic threats, and I believe that peace with Saudi Arabia is within reach."
