The White House believes that warming between Saudi Arabia and Israel will be gradual. Senior U.S. administration officials do not anticipate an agreement until Biden arrives in the region, but stressed that the president will discuss the issue in his talks in the states. Israeli officials estimate that a Saudi agreement will be reached to allow Israeli planes to pass through Saudi airspace.
President Joe Biden's visit to Israel and Saudi Arabia next month is intended to symbolize the fact that the Biden administration is trying to warm up relations between Israel and the Arab world after the Abrahamic agreements reached through the Trump administration and led to peace and normalization agreements between Israel and the UAE, Bahrain and Morocco.
