Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan on Saturday said that development is the motive for the Kingdom and many Arab countries to hold global summits like the ones held in Riyadh, asserting that it is also the “motive from which we derive our foreign policies.”
Speaking at a press conference after the three Riyadh summits, Bin Farhan said in response to a question by Asharq Al-Awsat that political action is a waste of national resources if it does not serve economic and development interests and enhance the well-being of citizens.
