A senior Israeli lawmaker said on Sunday that any forging of relations with Saudi Arabia did not appear imminent, despite US President Joe Biden's prediction last week of a possible rapprochement between the Middle East powers.
"I think it's too early to talk about a deal being in the works," Yuli Edelstein, head of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defence Committee and a senior member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party, told Israel's Army Radio.
