Four more normalization deals with ‘Israel’ are on the way, says Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there are four more countries on the way to normalize ties with ‘Israel’.

“I brought four peace agreements,” Netanyahu said in an interview with Ynet on Tuesday.

“There are another four on the way. I talked about one of them yesterday.”

Netanyahu said he received a call from “one of the leaders in the region” on Monday night, and they spoke for 45 minutes.

There were claims that Netanyahu did not attend a planned Likud event in Ashkelon the night before because of the threat of rocket fire from Gaza.

Rather, he said, he was speaking to the leader from the region, and he does not have good cell phone reception in his armored car, and therefore, could not conduct the call on the way to Ashkelon.

“I don’t want there to be [rocket] launches because of me and because of a political event, but that was not the reason. We were significantly late…I will visit Ashkelon and we take care of their security,” he said.

‘Israel’ normalized ties with the UAE last September, a move that was followed by Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco.

Palestinians condemned the normalization agreements, saying they encouraged Israel’s denial of their rights and do not serve the Palestinian cause.
