The Palestinian president affirms his country's solidarity with the Kingdom against Iranian aggression
His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, received a telephone call today from His Excellency President Mahmoud Abbas, President of the State of Palestine. During the call, they discussed the latest developments in the region, with the Palestinian President expressing his strong condemnation and deep denunciation of the threats against the Kingdom, affirming that the Palestinian leadership and people stand shoulder to shoulder with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia following Iranian attacks that targeted its security and stability.
During his conversation with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, President Mahmoud Abbas affirmed that Palestine fully supports all the measures and actions taken by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to defend its territory and protect its national assets and gains, noting that the security of the Kingdom is an integral part of Arab national security, and that any harm to it is a harm to the stability of the entire region.
The depth of relations and shared destiny in the face of challenges
This call comes within the context of the deep-rooted fraternal relations between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the State of Palestine, relations that have spanned decades of cooperation and joint coordination. The Kingdom has always been the foremost supporter and main advocate for the Palestinian cause in all international forums, politically, economically, and humanely. This expression of solidarity from the Palestinian President reflects appreciation for the leading role played by the Kingdom, under the leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, in defending the causes of the Arab and Islamic nations.
The exchange of support in critical times embodies the concept of shared destiny, as the Palestinian leadership recognizes that the stability of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a fundamental pillar for the region’s resilience in the face of external ambitions and schemes aimed at destabilizing security and spreading chaos.
The need to address the repercussions of Iranian attacks on the region
is not limited Iranian attacks to direct security concerns, but extends to far-reaching negative impacts on regional and international peace and security. Political circles view these attacks as a blatant violation of international laws and norms, and a desperate attempt to undermine the Kingdom's efforts toward development and stability in the Middle East.
From this perspective, Arab and international solidarity with the Kingdom is of paramount importance in deterring such hostile behavior. The Palestinian President's support for the Kingdom's right to defend itself sends a clear message that the Arab world rejects foreign interference and attacks that infringe upon the sovereignty of states, and underscores the necessity of concerted efforts to ensure the security of energy routes and protect the global economy from any potential threats arising from such irresponsible actions.
