Riyadh: Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman says Saudi Arabia sees Israel as a possible ally.
"We do not see Israel as an enemy," Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said in an interview with an American magazine. Israel could potentially be an ally of Saudi Arabia. Hopefully, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict will be resolved soon.
The Saudi Crown Prince said that Iran and Saudi Arabia are neighbors and cannot get rid of each other. It is better to live under the principle of coexistence.
Prince Mohammed bin Salman added: "I do not care what US President Joe Biden thinks of me. I have a long standing relationship with the United States and Riyadh wants a stronger relationship with the United States.
He said the Ritz-Carlton incident in 2017 was a crackdown on corrupt elements by the Saudi government. The reason for keeping the corrupt people in the hotel was that they were not in custody. They were given 2 options, either settle or face legal action. 95% of them agreed to the settlement.
