With regard to influence in politics, HRH Crown Prince said that influence means achieving interest, the Public Investment Fund, as an example has influence and a good reputation around the world and a major engine in many sectors globally, which means the world has become open to the Fund investments and the Fund became attracting new opportunities to invest in them. We had many investments because of the influence of the Public Investment Fund and its reputation since the beginning of the Vision, including, for example, investing in Uber, it is not the Fund that searched for Uber, it is the other way around, so create influence in various aspects to achieve the interest of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, without a doubt, this is required in a way that does not conflict with the United Nations Charter or the laws of the world countries. Regarding relations between Saudi Arabia and America after the arrival of the new American administration to the White House، HRH Crown Prince said, "Of course, there is no 100% agreement between any country even with the Gulf countries and the countries closest to you. There must be a margin of difference, and it is expected even in the same house that you do not find brothers who agree 100% on everything. With different American administrations, the margin of disagreement may increase or decrease. Still, more than 90% of the Biden administration are agreed upon in Saudi-American interests. Everyone works to enhance them in one way or another, the last of which is joining the new group aimed at important targets of clean energy for the environment. Saudi Arabia was one of the participating countries. Our interest is always strengthened, and matters on which we disagree constitute 10%. We work to find solutions and understandings for it, neutralizing its threat to our two countries and promote our interests. The United States is undoubtedly a strategic partner for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, a partnership for eighty years and has a great impact on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United States of America, so you can imagine if ten million barrels of cheap oil from a production cost of three to six dollar its contract went to Britain, the U.S would not be in its current position today. On a question about Saudi Arabia's contribution to America's power, HRH Crown Prince said that If this contract went to Britain,the United States' situation would be completely different today, even for us if this contract had gone to Britain, there would be pressure on us when Britain colonized most countries in the region in demarcating borders and in our situation we may face more pressure, but the contract with the United States gave an unwavering American interest, which made Britain reconsider anything or any pressure on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The United States in the fifties constituted 50% percent of the world's economy, today the size of the American economy constitutes 20% of the volume of the global economy, and the world began to regain its balance after the First and Second World War. We are working to maintain our strategic partnerships with our partners in the region, who are our most important partners, starting with the Gulf countries, Arab countries, and Middle Eastern countries. We are also working to strengthen our alliances with our partners around the world, the United States of America, Britain, France, Europe, and other countries, and we are working to create new partnerships with everyone, whether Russia, India, China, Latin America, Africa, and others, for the interests of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia without harming any other country in the world. Today, China, Russia, and India announced that Saudi Arabia is a strategic partner. The Kingdom is still a strategic partner for the United States of America. Finally, every country has a choice. If we can work with them to accomplish what is suitable for everyone, it is there; even if not, there are plenty of options in the world. --More 20:30 LOCAL TIME 17:30 GMT 0037 www.spa.gov.sa/w1550481
