The Palestinian Prime Minister stressed that Saudi Arabia attaches great importance to the Palestinian cause, which is its central and priority cause, pointing out that since the beginning of the c risis, Saudi Arabia has exerted all possible efforts to contain the existing crisis in the Gaza Strip and address the critical humanitarian situation and managed to unify the Arab and Islamic position towards this crisis through its presidency of the ministerial committee assigned by the Extraordinary Joint Arab Islamic Summit to support the Palestine people, counter the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and break the siege imposed on it, which resulted in a number of friendly countries recognizing the State of Palestine and demanding that the State of Palestine be accepted as a full member of the United Nations. This support comes as a continuation of the $5.3 billion in humanitarian, relief and development assistance provided by Saudi Arabia in recent years to the Palestinian people to help support Palestine.
