Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz underscored on Sunday the centrality of the Palestinian cause and Arab identity of the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

Addressing the Arab Summit in Tunisia, he said: “The Palestinian cause will remain Saudi Arabia’s top concern until the Palestinian people obtain all of their legitimate rights, starting with the establishment of their independent state based on the 1967 borders and with East Jerusalem as its capital.”

On Syria, he rejected any measures that could undermine Syria’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights. He also underlined the importance of reaching a political solution to end its crisis that would ensure its territorial integrity and prevent foreign meddling.
