Item Title The Critical and Inescapable U.S.-Saudi Arabian Relationship
Speaker Alhegelan, Sheikh Faisal
Date CreatedDecember 05, 1980
Description

Alhegelan discusses United States relations with countries in the Middle East. He reminds the U.S. of its commitment to not taking any action that may jeopardize the Palestinian people. He notes that the U.S. has tilted in favor of Israeli, which gives the Soviets a good entry point into the Middle East. Alhegelan talks about the Arab-Israeli conflict and how Israeli occupation on Arab lands creates problems in the Middle East. He also reminds the U.S. of the important role Saudi Arabia has in the oil industry. Finally, Alhegelan expresses his country's desire for a comprehensive settlement of the Arab-Israeli conflict, which will require some effort from the U.S.
