In terms of appearance, Zelensky’s sudden arrival, at the invitation of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, according to some information, drew attention to a place other than celebrating Bashar al-Assad, whose speech was not at the level of celebrating his return to the university, according to the politicians themselves.
In the figure, it is also recorded for the Kingdom to remove the Arab summit from being considered a traditional annual event that does not present anything new after many years of stagnation and ineffectiveness, especially after the years of the Corona pandemic, to the forefront of international attention through the step towards restoring the Syrian regime to its seat, which sparked great controversy regardless There are many opinions on this matter. And I completed that by receiving the Ukrainian president, who may turn out to have come according to a well-thought-out political budget.
In terms of content, what was most remarkable in the speech delivered by the Saudi Crown Prince was his saying, “We will not allow our region to turn into a zone of conflicts.” This is something that reveals to a large extent his strategy in foreign policy, and something that was also repeated by Aboul Gheit, who is not far from the Saudi position, when he said, “It is necessary to Sticking to Arab interests to face the pressures of international polarization. Since Russia started the war on Ukraine, Saudi Arabia has sought not to appear biased towards any party, but rather positioned itself as a mediator, as it succeeded in releasing hostages between the two warring countries.

Rather, it provides him with a political presence and the ability to address countries that have maintained their neutrality, and perhaps also communication with some leaders of Arab countries, especially in light of the desire of these countries to agree on resolving the region’s crises in a way that may unite them to help in the issue of the war on Ukraine, which was a major cause.
