President Biden dispatches his National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan to Saudi Arabia for talks with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman as the White House pushes for a normalization of relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
The White House in a brief statement said that Sullivan arrived in Jeddah on Thursday for talks with the crown prince, who is often referred to by his initial MbS, and other Saudi officials.
The kingdom released no images of the meeting, which saw Saudi Arabia’s defense and energy ministers attend, along with the head of its Public Investment Fund. The U.S. has been trying to get Riyadh to end its war in Yemen while also trying to lobby it over global oil prices, without much success.
During Blinken’s recent visit, Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan said that normalization with Israel would have “limited benefits” without “finding a pathway to peace for the Palestinian people.”
