HRH Crown Prince affirmed that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will not accept any pressure or interference in its internal affairs, explaining that the Charter of the United Nations explicitly states the sovereignty of states and their complete independence. The problem of the world that led to the World War I (WWI) and World War II (WWII) was the interference in the affairs of states, as this pact came to resolve a long crisis of Colonial eras until the First and Second World War, and were resolved by the United Nations Charter, and one of its most important pillars is the sovereignty of states and non-interference in their internal affairs. Any country interferes in the internal affairs of another country means that it has challenged the charter that preserved the peace, security and stability of the world after WWII, made world thrive in the last 50 to 60 years. Regarding relations with Iran, HRH Crown Prince said that Iran is a neighboring country, and all we hope is to have a good and distinguished relationship with Iran, explaining that the Kingdom does not want Iran to be in a difficult situation. On the contrary, Saudi Arabia wants Iran to prosper and grow, and to have interests in Iran and wants Iran to have interests in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, too, to push the region and the world to grow and prosper. He added that our problem is in Iran's negative behavior, whether its nuclear program or its support for outlaw militias in some countries in the region or the ballistic missile program, indicating that the Kingdom is working with partners in the region and the world to find solutions to these problems, and we hope to overcome them and to have good, positive relationship and beneficial to all. Regarding the Yemeni issue, HRH explained that this is not the first crisis between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Yemen, as there have been crises, since the era of King Abdulaziz , and were addressed, and then another crisis came in the seventies and eighties and was addressed, in the nineties until the 2009 crisis, which was addressed in a short period of time, and then the last crisis after the Houthi expanded from 2014 until it reached Sana'a, in the beginning of 2015, and then turned against the legitimacy, indicating that this is illegal in Yemen and internationally and there is no country in the world that accepts to have a militia or any armed organization, outside the law of a state, on its borders. This is unacceptable in Saudi Arabia and in the region, and also in Yemen. We have seen this behavior and its repercussions on Yemen. We hope that Al-Houthi sits at the negotiating table with all the Yemeni parties to reach solutions that guarantee the rights of everyone in Yemen and safeguard the interests of the countries of the region. HRH Crown Prince indicated that the Kingdom had offered a ceasefire, economic support for Yemen, and everything they wanted in exchange for a ceasefire by Houthis and to sit at the negotiating table. HRH Crown Prince said, "I think that Houthi undoubtedly has a strong relations with the Iranian regime, but Al-Houthi is in the end from Yemen and has an Arab and Yemeni tendency, in which I hope they take into account the Houthi's interests and interests of Yemen before anything else." On a question about what comes after the Kingdom’s 2030 vision, HRH Crown Prince replied that planning is ongoing and that the vision places us in a very advanced position in the world, but 2040 will be the stage of global competition. HRH Crown Prince explained that the Saudi citizen is the greatest thing that Saudi Arabia has for success, and that without a citizen we cannot achieve anything from what we have achieved. If the citizen is not convinced of what we are working on and if he/she is not ready to bear difficulties and challenges or not ready to be part of this work, whether it is a government employee, minister, businessman, private sector employee, or any citizen in any work, without a doubt, all that we say is only ink on paper. HRH indicated that fear does not exist in Saudi law. HRH said, " I think fear does not exist in Saudi law, but sometimes we may worry and we work to overcome concern, explaining that the Kingdom has made very great achievements in the past four years, and we will achieve more until 2025, and make Saudi Arabia thrive more and more. --SPA 20:31 LOCAL TIME 17:31 GMT 0038 www.spa.gov.sa/w1550482
