"Israel's Stance on Saudi Nuclear Demand and Diplomatic Ties Examined"

Israel's Strategic Affairs Minister, Ron Dermer, indicated that Israel would not oppose a Saudi civilian nuclear program as part of an Israel-American-Saudi deal, suggesting that if Saudi Arabia doesn't get what it wants from the US, it could turn to China or France instead. Dermer's remarks come amid discussions between Israeli and US officials regarding Saudi Arabia. The Israeli position on a Saudi civilian nuclear program remains dependent on the details of any agreement. Dermer's comments are seen as Israel's acceptance of Saudi conditions and a potential alternative to US involvement, with China being mentioned as a possible partner.
