A peace deal that normalized ties between Saudi Arabia and Israeli is inevitable, senior White House adviser Jared Kushner boldly claimed during a television media interview on Friday.
"I do think we have other countries that are very interested in moving forward [with normalization] and as that progresses I do think that it's an inevitability that Saudi Arabia and Israel will have fully normalized relations and they'll be able to do a lot of great things together," Kushner told CNBC.

Noting that Saudi youths were much more open to normalizing relations with the Jewish state, unlike the country's older generation which is "still stuck in conflicts of the past," he added that the Saudis "see Israel as almost the Silicon Valley of the Middle East and they want to be connected to it as a trading partner, as a technology partner, as a security partner."
