โก๏ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ท๐จThe Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has stated that the "defeat of the Shia Axis of Evil" and the strengthening of Israel's role as a "regional power" will push moderate Arab countries to align with Tel Aviv, overcoming the fear of Iran.
๐ป He defined Israel as "the strongest player in the Middle East," stating that those who choose to support it will benefit from security, innovation, and economic opportunities.
๐ป Smotrich has also claimed the role of the Abraham Accords in building a "new Middle East" with Israel as a hub between Africa, Asia, and Europe, and has argued that it is the Arab countries that must "pay" for peace, not Israel, refusing territorial concessions or the self-determination of the Palestinian people.
