Abstract

The tensions between the Arabs and the Israeli regime, which has been one of the most important issues in the field of international relations, has turned into cooperation between the parties since 2015. Iran, which considers the regime of Israel and some Arab countries as its enemy, in order to increase its influence and security in the West Asian region, has created an axis of resistance with the aim of deterring and creating security. Saudi Arabia and Israel consider Iran as a common threat. And they are trying to deal with it in the form of Iran-phobia, supporting terrorist groups, creating a challenge for Iran's regional allies, Shia-phobia, persuading America to withdraw from the JCPOA and normalize relations.Considering the special position of the two countries in the regional arena, the analysis of the future relations between the two countries has an undeniable necessity. The qualitative research method and the main problem of the descriptive-analytical approach will be investigated. The main question is that Tehran-Riyadh relations have a direct impact on the normalization of Arabs and Israel.The improvement of relations between Tehran and Riyadh has a direct effect on the normalization of relations between Saudi Arabia and the Israeli regime, which is proposed as a hypothesis. The results of the research show that confronting Iran's political-security influence in the region, forming a joint defense organization in the region, Shia-phobia, supporting extremist groups and influencing the withdrawal of the United States from the JCPOA are among the consequences of the normalization of Saudi relations. It is with the Israeli regime that they will be seriously challenged by the improvement of the relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
