“We are pleased that Washington is focusing on ending the war in Gaza, which aligns with the establishment of the State of Palestine,” he added.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meetings in New York, Prince Faisal noted that several Arab countries warned U.S. President Donald Trump about the potential annexation of the West Bank by Israel.
He said, “Several countries explained to Trump the dangers of any annexation of the West Bank, as it threatens not only peace in Gaza but peace in general.”
