Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said, Wednesday, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will not establish diplomatic relations with Israel without the establishment of a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The Saudi Crown Prince explained during the opening of the first year of the 9th session of the Shura Council. He told its members:
“The Palestinian issue is at the forefront of your country’s concerns, and we renew the Kingdom’s rejection and strong condemnation of the crimes of the Israeli occupation authority against the Palestinian people, ignoring international and humanitarian law in a new and bitter chapter of suffering.”
The Prince added: “The Saudi Kingdom will not stop its tireless work towards the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, and we affirm that the Kingdom will not establish diplomatic relations with Israel without that.”
He pointed out: “The Kingdom is keen to cooperate with all active countries in the international community, certain that what protects humanity and preserves its civilizational values is the joint pursuit of a better future based on fruitful cooperation between countries and peoples, respecting the independence and values of countries, adopting the principle of good neighborliness, non-interference in their internal affairs, and avoiding resorting to force in resolving disputes.”
