Hello. I read a sentence once and have a question.

Sentence: U.S. President Joe Biden and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who are now in talks over the possible full normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia, should condition any deal on setting aside Smotrich’s ambitions in the West Bank.

The original text is an article that I found by googling "Israel Saudi deal".

Question:

Does "normalization of relations between A and B" mean that two formerly hostile countries are now friendly with each other?

Thanks.

its more like trying to set aside the differences and learn to function together, kinda like two people in a relationship although tbh i dont see any differences between jews and the saudi prince

not sure why biden is there though, the guy doesnt know where hes at most of the time

Thank you.
