Saudi Arabia condemned in the strongest terms the recent statements made by the Prime Minister of the Israeli occupation government, Benjamin Netanyahu, regarding what is called the "Greater Israel vision," considering them a serious escalation that reveals the illegal settlement and expansionist intentions pursued by the Israeli occupation authorities.
In an official statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Kingdom reiterated its firm rejection of all projects and plans aimed at legitimizing settlement, entrenching occupation, and erasing the historical and legal rights of the Palestinian people.
The statement emphasized that these statements represent a blatant violation of international legitimacy resolutions, a blatant challenge to international law, and a direct threat to the security and stability of the region.
The Saudi Foreign Ministry affirmed the Kingdom's steadfast and unwavering support for the right of the Palestinian brotherly people to establish their independent sovereign state on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, based on the principles of international law, relevant United Nations resolutions, and the Arab Peace Initiative.
The Kingdom also warned the international community against complacency in the face of ongoing Israeli violations, calling for immediate and serious action to stop these aggressive policies that undermine peace opportunities and endanger regional and international security and peace.
In a related context, 27 countries around the world called on the Israeli occupation authorities to immediately allow humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip and to stop using "lethal force" against civilians, amid the catastrophic deterioration of humanitarian conditions in the besieged enclave.
Saudi Arabia reiterated at the end of its statement its permanent commitment to the Palestinian cause, continuing its efforts at all levels to support the Palestinian people, and working to achieve a just and comprehensive peace in accordance with international principles and references.
