Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman declared the Kingdom’s unconditional support for Qatar in the wake of a recent attack by Israel.
Speaking before the Shura Council on Wednesday, the Crown Prince pledged that Saudi Arabia would stand firmly with its fellow Gulf state. “We will stand with the sister state of Qatar in whatever measures it takes, without limit, dedicating all our resources,” he declared, signaling a deep commitment to a unified Arab and Islamic response to the assault.

The pledge of support was coupled with a sharp condemnation of Israel’s ongoing military campaign in Gaza. Delivering his message on behalf of King Salman, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, Prince Mohammed accused Israel of committing severe humanitarian crimes. “Therefore, we also condemn the continued brutal assault on our Palestinian brothers in Gaza and the ongoing crimes of starvation and forced displacement,” he stated, aligning Saudi Arabia firmly with the Palestinian cause.
The Crown Prince’s strong rhetoric underscores a significant moment of regional unity between Riyadh and Doha, whose rivalry had previously defined Gulf politics for years. His promise of unlimited resources suggests a potential for coordinated political, economic, or diplomatic actions against Israel, marking a notable escalation in regional posture.

Beyond foreign policy, the address served as a comprehensive review of Saudi Arabia’s progress under the ambitious Vision 2030 initiative. The Crown Prince highlighted a major economic milestone, announcing that non-oil activities now constitute 56 percent of the nation’s GDP, which has exceeded 4.5 trillion riyals for the first time.
He detailed achievements across various sectors, including massive infrastructure projects, strategic partnerships in artificial intelligence, and a remarkable expansion in the localization of the military industry—growing from a mere 2 percent to over 19 percent. Social and economic reforms also featured prominently, with the Crown Prince citing falling unemployment rates and a significant rise in women’s participation in the workforce as evidence of the plan’s success.
Acknowledging ongoing domestic challenges, particularly rising housing costs, he pledged continued government efforts to improve the quality of life for Saudi citizens.
The Crown Prince concluded by reaffirming that the Kingdom’s growing influence on the world stage is built on a dual foundation: its unwavering moral principles rooted in Islamic law and justice, and its rapid economic diversification, positioning Saudi Arabia as a leader both in the Arab world and the global economy.
