In addition, Saudi Arabia is ready to be an intermediary between Ukraine and the Russian Federation. This was said by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the Arab League summit, reports The Guardian.
According to him, Saudi Arabia supports international efforts to end the Russian-Ukrainian war.
The media write that the statement of Saudi Arabia about its neutrality can be perceived as a success for Ukraine, since the country has maintained close relations with Russia in recent years.
The statement was made on the day Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Saudi Arabia. He addressed the Arab League and met with Salman Al Saud.
Recall that on February 26, 2023, Faisal ibn Farhan was in Kyiv on a visit and signed a number of agreements.
Zelensky in Riyadh urged the Arab countries not to ignore what is happening in Ukraine and to join the “peace formula” – Zelensky’s plan, which provides for the withdrawal of Russian troops and the return of Ukraine to the 1991 borders.
