Jeddah, Ramadan 24, 1436, July 11, 2015, SPA -- Prince Miteb bin Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, Minister of National Guard, has offered his condolence to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the royal family, and the people of Saudi Arabia on the sad demise of Prince Saud Al-Faisal, former Saudi Minister of Foreign Affairs, which took place in the United States on Thursday. With deep sorrow and grief, Prince Miteb bin Abdullah bin Abdulaziz recalled the great history of the late Saudi senior diplomat who served for four decades, appealing to Allah Almighty to accept the deceased in paradise. Prince Miteb bin Abdullah bin Abdulaziz said the deceased has won the confidence of all Saudi kings at the time because he was the unchallenged official to carry the portfolio for so long period, noting that Prince Saud Al-Faisal was known to have been the troubleshooter diplomat in the region for so long time. With his sad departure, the Saudi, regional and international diplomacy has lost an influential instrument as he was in the forefront lines of diplomatic work during thorny debates. Prince Miteb offered his condolence to Prince Saud's family as well. --SPA 11:30 LOCAL TIME 08:30 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
