Riyadh – “AAA”:

The Saudi Al-Youm newspaper emphasized the importance of a comprehensive international agreement regarding Iran’s nuclear program, which guarantees preventing it from obtaining nuclear weapons, addressing its destabilizing behavior in the region and the world and sponsoring terrorism, and preventing it from carrying out any kind of provocations in the future, which will reintegrate it into the international community. All penalties will be waived.

The newspaper – in its editorial, today, Saturday, entitled (Nuclear Weapons and Iranian Threats) – praised the Kingdom’s position, which stresses the importance of efforts to achieve the elimination of nuclear weapons, especially in the Middle East, in order to establish security and stability, by striving for development and progress. It reflects a steadfast and systematic policy of a country that promotes and supports regional and international stability.

She referred to the Kingdom’s speech delivered by its permanent representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Abdullah bin Yahya Al-Muallami, before the First Committee of the work of the seventy-fifth session of the United Nations General Assembly, where he said, “It is regrettable that the Middle East region remains elusive to international and regional efforts to make it a nuclear-weapon-free zone. In light of the availability of an international consensus and an urgent regional desire to make the region free of nuclear weapons.
