Israeli minister says Pakistan not among states it may have ties with
169
JERUSALEM: Israel is working towards formalising relations with a fifth Muslim country, possibly in Asia, during US President Donald Trump’s term, an Israeli cabinet minister said on Wednesday.
The White House has brokered rapprochements between Israel and the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco this year. Rabat hosted an Israeli-US delegation on Tuesday to flesh out the upgrade in relations.
Asked if a fifth country could sign up before Trump steps down on Jan 20, Regional Cooperation Minister Ofir Akunis told Israel’s Ynet TV: “We are working in that direction.”
“I believe ... there will be an American announcement about another country that is going public with the normalisation of relations with Israel and, in essence, with the infrastructure for an accord — a peace accord,” he said.
Officials have said they are trying to get more countries to recognise Israel or warm existing ties to it.
Akunis said there were two main candidate countries to become the next to move towards normal ties with Israel. He did not name either but said one is in the Gulf and could be Oman but would not be Saudi Arabia. The other, further to the east, is a “Muslim country that is not small” but is not Pakistan, he said.
Indonesia, the most populous Muslim country, said last week it would not recognise Israel as long as Palestinian statehood demands remain unmet. Malaysia has signalled a similar policy.
“Malaysia’s firm stance on the Palestinian issue will not change,” Deputy Foreign Minister Kamarudin Jaffar told the country’s senate on Wednesday, adding that Kuala Lumpur would not interfere in other nations’ decisions on Israel.
In Dhaka, a foreign ministry official said Bangladesh was not interested in establishing diplomatic ties with Israel. “Our position remains the same,” he told Reuters.
Oman has praised the US-brokered diplomatic drive but has not commented on its own prospects of forging Israel ties.
The Palestinians, whose negotiations with Israel stalled in 2014, fear being sidelined by the normalisation process.

It is unfortunate that 5 Muslim countries have recognized Israel with out Israel recognizing a need for Palistinian state and without vacating occupied territories.

If Pakistan were to normalize relations with Israel (a huge If), far MORE upset than the people on the streets of Pakistan would be India!

Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia and Bangladesh account for more than half the Muslims in the world. Muslims do not recognize Israel. Recognition from few small puppet regimes does not give legitimacy to illegal Israeli occupation from Muslims. Israel will never get peace until Palestinians get it.
Standing up for principles and rejecting economic benefits is a trait of great humans.

You never know what the "U-Turn" Khan would do tomorrow when the Saudis call him and tell him to have relations with Israelis, in turn making it easier for them to do the same down the road.

Israel always cares those like the South Lebanese heroic people who had showed the day on 2006 resistance,Pakistan has no dearth of such people and the atomic teeth is a factor. Moreover, they are much advanced people.Their closer neighbour Iran is like that.
