RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Affairs Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan reportedly held talks Sunday and Monday on the dire situation in Gaza with Luxembourg’s Foreign and European Affairs Minister Jean Asselborn and Norway’s foreign minister Espen Barth Eide during separate calls.
In their telephonic conversation, Prince Faisal lauded Luxembourg for its support of the UN resolution on Gaza issued on Friday, which calls for an immediate ceasefire.
The two ministers agreed that the international community should help end the fighting and ensure aid flows into the besieged area.
Bin Farhan additionally praised Norway’s decision to vote in favor of the UN resolution and discussed the continued escalation of military operations in Gaza and the need to prevent the forced displacement of the population.
The minister also made a call to Ireland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Defense Michael Martin.
