Fmr amb. to Israel refutes Biden's claims about allowing Israeli access to Saudi airspace: 'Not significant'
Fox News
Former U.S. ambassador to Israel David Friedman contradicted President Joe Biden's claim that allowing Israeli access to Saudi airspace is 'significant' on Sunday.
AMB. DAVID FRIEDMAN: It's not significant because I've flown over Saudi Arabia lots of times already on the way to Abu Dhabi, on the way to Bahrain, on the way to Dubai. I think most significantly, I don't think the Saudis themselves view this as significant. I mean, they've made it clear that this has nothing to do with any normalization or reconciliation with Israel. They've walked it back already. You know, by the time the president was on Air Force One, this was being walked back. So, no, it's not significant then… I think we would expect much more in the future with that relationship.
