By Royal Orders : Saudis Abandon Their Fighters

Texte vraiment intéressant (et riche). Certes beaucoup de supputations et de « sources », mais jusqu’à présent, le Akhbar est plutôt apprécié pour travailler sérieusement ses dossiers diplomatiques.

Oui, article très important je crois. A noter aussi les intéressantes hypothèses liant la question du revirement saoudien au « processus de paix » :

Here is where the information intersects: the terrorism file presented by the United States to their Saudi counterparts and the Palestinian-Israeli settlement dossier. Sources close to the Palestinian National Authority in Ramallah said that Kerry had asked the head of the PNA, Mahmoud Abbas, to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, in return for a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. This would be with the gradual abandonment of the principle of the right of return and reviving the implantation project on a large scale, where Arab countries, in addition to Australia and Canada, would absorb Palestinians.

Palestinian sources add that President Abbas was reluctant about announcing his approval without a cover by influential Arab countries, chiefly Saudi Arabia. Kerry reassured Abbas that he would be personally undertaking this task.
