“Oman will not be the third Persian Gulf country to normalize ties with israel,” Al Busaidi said in an interview with Asharq Al-Awsat, an Arabic international newspaper headquartered in London.
“We will never be the third Gulf country to make concessions with Israel and we defend the legitimate rights of Palestinians. We also respect the sovereign decisions of states, just as we expect others to respect our sovereign decisions.”
He also said that his country believes in a comprehensive, fair, and permanent solution for the region.
Oman does not officially recognize the state of zionist occupation regime and took part in the boycott of the regime during much of the 20th century.
In 1994, the countries established unofficial trade relations, which were discontinued in 2000. In 2018, the zionist regime’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu led a delegation to Oman and met with Sultan Qaboos and other senior Omani officials.
In February 2019, Omani foreign minister, Yusuf bin Alawi, said that Oman will not normalize its relations with israel until a sovereign Palestinian state has been established. (ILKHA)
