Mauritanians Protest Normalization with Israeli Regime
Those attending the rally in front of a mosque in the capital also voice support for the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Arabi21 website reported.
They carried banners reading “Al-Quds is a trust and normalization is treason” and “Mauritania Condemns Normalization”.
The rally was organized by the “Students Initiative against Normalizations” in reaction to reports that Saudi Arabia and the Zionist regime are going to normalize their ties in the near future with support from the United States.
The Zionist regime’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, said in a speech at the UN General Assembly on Friday that the regime is on the verge of a “historical peace agreement” with Saudi Arabia.
A day earlier, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman told Fox News in an interview that the Arab country is getting closer to normalization with the occupation regime.
He said, however, that the issue of Palestine is very important for Riyadh.
US President Joe Biden declared on July 28 that a deal for Israel and Saudi Arabia to normalize relations may be on the horizon following his national security adviser Jake Sullivan’s talks with Saudi officials in Jeddah.
In order to sign a deal with Israel, Riyadh publicly asked Tel Aviv to implement the 2002 so-called Arab Peace Initiative to establish a Palestinian state first.
However, Israeli officials say they will not make any concession to the Palestinians as part of a potential deal for normalization of relations with Saudi Arabia.
