The Emirati Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly condemned statements made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding the establishment of a Palestinian state in Saudi Arabia.

The foreign ministry issued a statement on Saturday, expressing the country's strong denunciation of Netanyahu's “unacceptable and provocative” statements.

According to the statement, the UAE rejected Netanyahu's remarks as a “blatant violation of the rules of international law and the United Nations Charter,” while emphasizing that Saudi Arabia's sovereignty is a “red line”, stressing that it will not allow any country to cross it or infringe on it.

It also categorically rejected compromising the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and attempting to displace them, calling for an end to settlement activities that “threaten regional stability and undermine the chances of peace and coexistence.”

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said Saudi Arabia could take forcibly displaced Palestinians in and create a Palestinian state on Saudi land in an interview with Channel 14 conducted during his Washington visit. 

During their meeting, which was preceded by a press conference, Netanyahu and Trump reportedly discussed normalization with Saudi Arabia, and the Israeli PM said that normalization with Riyadh is not only feasible, but he "thinks it's going to happen."

Netanyahu emphasized during his Channel 14 interview that he would not sign an agreement with Saudi Arabia that would endanger the occupation, "Especially not a Palestinian state. After October 7? Do you know what that is? There was a Palestinian state, it was called Gaza. Gaza, led by Hamas, was a Palestinian state, and look what we got – the biggest massacre since the Holocaust."

"The Saudis can create a Palestinian state in Saudi Arabia; they have a lot of land over there," he said.
