Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a historic speech at the United Nations, announcing the normalization of ties with Saudi Arabia. In an unprecedented move, the speech was also broadcast in Saudi Arabia, signaling new beginnings in the region. Netanyahu expressed his optimism for the new year, highlighting his meetings with various heads of state and discussing the expansion of the circle of peace initiated by the Abraham Accords. The Israeli leader met with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and others. Two leaders even announced the transfer of their embassies to Jerusalem, which Netanyahu described as good news. He also mentioned his wife’s participation in events with leaders’ wives, including the wife of US President Joe Biden, Jill Biden.
