WASHINGTON: Marco Rubio, United States Secretary of State in a meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) discussed plans for Gaza to ensure peace in the region.
This was revealed by State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce while talking to media.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio meets with Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Rubio is visiting the Middle East after President Donald Trump infuriated the Arab world with a proposal for the Palestinian residents of the war-torn strip to be resettled in other Arab nations and for the US to lead reconstruction of the enclave.
“The Secretary underscored the importance of an arrangement for Gaza that contributes to regional security,” State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said in a readout of the meeting between Rubio and the crown prince.
The two also reaffirmed their commitment to the ceasefire agreed last month between Israel and Hamas and discussed Syria, Lebanon and the Red Sea, Bruce said.
