Israel-Saudi Deal, Palestinians & Iran Agreement: What’s on Agenda of Biden's Mideast Trip?_我的网站

A |     During the two-day visit, the American head of state will meet with Israel's top officials. These will include the new prime minister, Yair Lapid, alternate PM Naftali Bennett, as well as opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu. He is also set to visit an Iron Dome missile defense base, a system developed jointly by the US and Israel.,The main focus of the US president’s upcoming trip will be a stop in Saudi Arabia, Danny Ayalon, Israel's former ambassador to the US, believes,"In the upcoming trip, the focus will be on Jeddah. Of course, the Saudis will not normalize relations with Israel but cooperation will be on the table.",Riyadh has repeatedly said that a normalization pact with Israel is not possible unless the Palestinian issue is resolved. Israel, which has just entered a transitional period ahead of the November midterm elections is not in a position to offer concessions, apart from symbolic gestures such as granting more work permits to Gazans or allowing crowds to pray at the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.,But what Israel can offer to the Saudis, Ayalon says, is a solution to an issue that has been bothering them for years – control over the Tiran and Sanafir Islands in the Red Sea.,The two islands were under Saudi jurisdiction until 1950, when Riyadh transferred them to Egypt. Israel captured them during the Six Day War, but later returned them to Cairo as part of the 1979 bilateral peace treaty.,Egypt has been in control of the islands since then, but in 2016 President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi promised to give them back to the Saudis. However, for that to happen, he needs the consent of the Israelis, due to the terms of the 1979 agreement.,Back then, Israeli consent was not given. Now, however, it seems to be on the table, Ayalon says. He stresses that Israel may use the issue as a bargaining chip in talks on the opening of Saudi airspace for Israeli planes or on defense cooperation. The latter is crucial for Riyadh, he says, especially in light of the threat emanating from Yemen's Houthi rebels, linked to Iran.,"Of course, the Saudis will continue with their lip service to the Palestinians, but cooperation will be taking place under the radar. However, the scope of that cooperation will not be big", the former diplomat says. "There is a generation gap between the Saudi king and his son, Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, and unless there is a shift, nothing will move towards the formalization of ties," he added.,Palestinian Issue,Before Biden came to power, he vowed to support the two-state solution, resume funding for the Palestinians that was halted under his predecessor, and open the American Consulate in East Jerusalem to counter balance their embassy in the western part of the disputed city.,More than a year after his inauguration, many of the issues he had promised to resolve are still up in the air.,The US Consulate hasn't been opened in East Jerusalem yet, and doubts run high as to whether it ever will. The Palestinian Liberation Organization's office in Washington that was shut under President Donald Trump is still closed. Funds that were given to the Palestinians in the past have not been fully restored.,The Palestinians have repeatedly stressed their dissatisfaction with the lack of progress on their front, and Ayalon says the arrival of Biden is aimed at calming the mood.,"There won't be any breakthrough on the Palestinian front. But Biden does want to take some credit for the economic assistance to the Palestinians, and he does want to bolster the security cooperation between Israel and the PA, sending a message to Hamas.",Iran Nuclear Deal,Although last week another round of talks between the US and Iran ended in a stalemate, Washington is still interested in pursuing that path.,If a deal is reached, the US would remove many of its sanctions from the Islamic Republic in exchange for the ability to supervise Tehran's nuclear program.,The deal taking shape is disturbing officials in Jerusalem and Riyadh, who claim that a nuclear Iran might threaten their security, allegations Tehran has repeatedly denied. Ayalon says Biden's visit will try to mitigate the damage. He will also try to "get the support of Israel for the deal". But the Jewish state is unlikely to be convinced, even under the leadership of the more liberal Yair Lapid.,Israel’s Prime Minister Claims Iran ‘Dangerously Close’ to Obtaining Nuclear Weapons12 June, 00:10 GMT,The Israeli PM is heading to Paris on Tuesday, where he will meet President Emmanuel Macron to discuss the deal with Iran and attempts by the Islamic Republic to remove its Revolutionary Guards from the list of terror organizations.,In September, he is also planning a trip to New York, where he will address the United Nations General Assembly and raise the issue of Iran once again.,"Lapid is likely to tell Biden that Israel is not bound by this agreement, if it does happen. Israel will emphasize that it will have a free hand when it comes to Iran, and that also means that it can adhere to plan B," Ayalon said, referring to a military option.,Russia's Operation in Ukraine,However, Biden is not only going to Israel for the sake of regional issues, the former diplomat claims. His visit to Israel and Saudi Arabiacomes amid raging hostilities in Ukraine, and the US head of state will try to convince the two Middle Eastern nations to stand by the side of Washington, he adds.,Although Saudi Arabia cracked under the American pressure to pump more oil, prices on crude continue to climb, shaking the economies of the US and Europe.,Israel, on its part, has also taken a lukewarm approach vis-a-vis Ukraine. Although it has publicly denounced Russian actions, absorbed thousands of Ukrainian refugees, and provided thousands more with medical and humanitarian assistance, it has not joined sanctions against Russia. And Ayalon says his country is not planning to change its course.,"President Vladimir Putin has been friendly with Israel for all these years. Plus, we have a big Russian population in this country. So I doubt Israel will join the Western sanctions against Moscow. It is simply not in our interests," he concluded.。    日前航拍的沧州临港经济技术开发区。

B | 高宁摄在沧州，石油化工、煤化工、盐化工作为化工产业“三兄弟”，曾各自为战、独立发展。

C | 如今，在沧州绿色化工产业布局中，通过原料互补、副产品资源化，它们变成产业链上紧密合作的“合伙人”。8月16日，沧州临港金诚化工有限责任公司中控室智慧大屏上，年产16万吨离子膜烧碱装置的数据实时跳动。“作为典型的盐化工企业，我们把海盐送入车间电解槽，产出烧碱、氯气和氢气。”该公司副总经理白海臣说，过去，氢气因不便储存运输，只能当作废气放空，氯气也难以就近消化。

D | 面对这一难题，沧州临港经济技术开发区转变思路，围绕金诚化工的副产品进行链式招商，于2022年引进先正新材料公司、科迈新材料公司、晋邦新材料公司三家化工新材料企业，推进当地石油化工产业链向下游延伸。如今，金诚化工的副产品顺着园区的工业管廊找到归宿：纯度99.9%的氢气直送1公里外的科迈新材料公司，用于生产橡胶防老剂，年利用量约1500万标方；氯气供给先正新材料公司，生产环保增塑剂；晋邦新材料公司则同时“吃”进金诚化工的液碱和先正新材料公司的氯化氢，用于生产环氧氯丙烷。四家企业抱团发展，一年节约成本1.82亿元，创造经济效益1.3亿元。在沧州临港经济技术开发区，不仅有盐化工与石油化工的循环，更有煤化工与盐化工、石油化工的循环。作为园区煤化工的源头，正元氢能科技有限公司通过煤气化项目生产液氨、尿素，同时副产大量氢气。

E | 该公司的液氨依托园区短距离槽罐车，供给园区内的华茂伟业公司开展精细化工合成；煤化工基础原料服务园区盐化工下游精深加工企业；副产的氢气交由欣国氢能公司提纯处理后，供给建新化工、瀛海香料、华茂伟业等10余家企业，广泛用于石油化工下游企业的精细化工生产和氢能综合利用。“作为国家循环化改造示范试点园区，我们秉持绿色化工发展理念，推动石油化工、煤化工、盐化工融合发展，打造循环经济产业链条，促进资源节约集约循环利用。”沧州临港经济技术开发区循环经济促进中心主任张蕾说，目前，园区内200余家化工企业产业关联度达86%。

F | 产业抱团，顶层设计是牵引。近年来，沧州市围绕绿色化工产业，相继出台高质量发展实施方案、重点工作清单等文件，整合临港五大化工园区，实现机制打通、设施联通、规划一张网、产业一张图，加快“大临港”园区耦合发展。

G | 同时，加快跨园区公共管廊、储罐区建设，“港口—铁路—管廊”多式联运体系建设。各园区依据功能定位精准招商、错位发展，避免同质竞争。沧州石油化工、煤化工、盐化工企业正在深度融合中实现快速发展。今年上半年，沧州绿色化工产业营业收入达1078.8亿元，占全市规上工业营收的39.9%。（日报记者 戴绍志）。
