Arabs concerned about Smotrich: 'Changing reality on the ground; 'a disaster for us'

Assessment

A prominent Arab newspaper is publicly blaming Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich for what it describes as irreversible damage to the two-state solution. The paper's language, calling Smotrich's actions a disaster that changes reality on the ground, signals deep alarm within Arab political circles. This suggests that Smotrich's policies are seen as actively dismantling diplomatic frameworks, not just opposing them. The next development to watch is whether this criticism translates into concrete diplomatic or security responses from Arab states.
