Saudi Arabia Reaffirms Commitment to Palestinian Cause Ahead of Two-State Solution Conference
Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan emphasized on Sunday that the upcoming high-level conference on the two-state solution in New York reflects Kingdom's firm stance on the Palestinian cause and its continuous efforts to maintain a just and comprehensive peace, according to Al Arabiya.
Prince Faisal's remarks come as Saudi Arabia prepares to co-chair, alongside France, a conference this week in order to advance a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
'We look forward to pushing towards the implementation of international…resolutions that call for the establishment of two states in which the Palestinians can enjoy their independent state, [contributing to] achieving peace and stability for the region, and advancing it towards development and prosperity,' the prince said.
Set to take place at the UN headquarters in New York, the conference supports the efforts of the Global Alliance for the Implementation of the two-state solution. This alliance represents a remarkable initiative launched by Prince Faisal in September 2024.
In this context, he noted that the Kingdom is exerting all its efforts to establish a just peace in the Middle East region under the leadership of King Salman and the follow-up by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
He also stated that Saudi Arabia is striving to 'put an end to the sufferings of Palestinians and to stop the circle of violence.'
French President Emmanuel Macron has recently revealed his plan to recognize a Palestinian state at the UN General Assembly in September.
In a response, the Kingdom has commended Macron's step, and the Saudi Foreign Ministry called the announcement 'historic' and urged other countries to follow suit.
