Saudi’s progress, stances hailed

Jeddah : Information Affairs Minister Ali bin Mohammed Al Rumaihi has lauded the landmark development and civilisational achievements of Saudi Arabia, under the leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.

He also hailed Saudi Arabia’s pioneering initiatives to cement GCC, Arab and Islamic fraternity, keenness to support the Arab Nation’s progress, security and dedicated efforts in the service of Islam and Muslims.

Speaking to Sharq Al-Awsat daily yesterday marking Saudi Arabia’s National Day, the Minister expressed pride in the depth of the deep-rooted relations binding the two countries. “The Bahraini-Saudi ties are based on mutual love and respect, shared religion and history, common destiny and strong fraternal ties,” he remarked.

“Saudi Arabia’s National Day is a dear occasion for all Arab and Muslim citizens on which they recall a milestone in the history of humanity. It’s when founder, King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman, led a great and honourable epic that culminated in the unification and establishment of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” the Minister said.

Al Rumaihi also stressed Saudi Arabia’s remarkable initiatives to combat extremism and terrorism, and keenness to deliver relief aid to affected people all over the world. “It’s in line with the social solidarity spirit stemming from the principles of the Islamic religion.”

Meanwhile, Al Rumaihi congratulated the Saudi leadership, government and people on their country’s National Day, which coincides with the success of the Hajj season.
