Riyadh Seeking to Normalize Ties with Tel Aviv: Yemeni Politician
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – A ranking Yemeni official hammered the Saudi regime for its efforts to consign the issue of Palestine to oblivion, saying the kingdom is brazenly attempting to establish normal ties with Israel.
Saudi Arabia is at the top of the regimes seeking to consign the issue of Palestine to oblivion, Head of Yemen's Supreme Political Council Saleh al-Samad said on Friday, in a demonstration marking the International Quds Day in Yemen.
He also lashed out at Saudi Arabia for its policy of preparing the ground for overtly normalizing relations with the Israeli regime, the Arabic language al-Mayadeen TV reported.
On Friday, demonstrations were held around the world to mark the International Quds Day, an annual display of solidarity with Palestinians and condemnation of the Israeli policies.
The event, marked on the last Friday of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, is seen as the legacy of the late founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini, who officially declared the International Quds Day back in 1979.
