News - Middle East: Popular demonstrations in Arab countries against the normalization of ties with Israel show that the US is gradually “losing ground” in the region and is not dominant anymore. 

Charlotte Kates, the international coordinator of Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, made the comments on Press TV’s Spotlight Sunday edition after anti-Israel protests were held across Morocco against the normalization of ties with the Tel Aviv regime on its second anniversary on the same day.

“The United States, as an imperialist power, wants to control and dominate the region for the profit of its military-industrial complex and huge corporations,” she said. Therefore, “it benefits from the division of the Arab people.”

She argued that the lack of popular support for the normalization of ties with Israel shows that “the United States’ influence is not dominant and is in fact losing ground day by day.”

Kates also made a reference to the fact that the US supplies Israel with $3.8 billion in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) this year for the “slaughter and oppression of the Palestinian people.”

The United States, she said, has been first and foremost behind all the efforts to forcibly impose normalization on the Arab people from Morocco to the Emirates and elsewhere.
