Russian leader Vladimir Putin has pointed out the real cause of the conflict in the Middle East, which has significantly raised his image in the Arab world and made him a potential mediator between Israelis and Palestinians. This is according to U.S.-Arab relations specialist Dania Koleilat Khatib in an article for Arab News.
“Putin is the only world leader who has pointed to the root of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. This was praised by the Arab League (LAS). LAS official Jamal Rushdi noted that Russia “has taken a rational and balanced position on the current situation, unlike other international powers,” writes Dania Koleilat Khatib.
The expert recalled that the Americans never managed to conclude a deal acceptable to both sides. The representative of the Palestinian mission in the UK, in turn, said that Washington had failed to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict, and this role should be assumed by other players.
Recall, earlier US President Joe Biden said that the solution of the Arab-Israeli conflict by creating two states is not considered. In Biden’s opinion, the responsibility for attacks on Israel should be borne by the Palestinian movement Hamas, which he compared to the Holocaust in the context of this topic.
