Saudi Arabia infuriated over US recognition of Golan Heights



CAIRO:  Saudi Arabia took strong exception to US President Donald Trump for recognizing Israel’s 1981 annexation of the Golan Heights, a statement released by the Saudi Press Agency said early on Tuesday.

“Attempts to impose fait accompli do not change the facts,” the statement said. It said the Golan Heights was an “occupied Syrian Arab land in accordance with the relevant international resolutions”.

The statement says that the recognition does not bode well for the peace process in the Middle East and the security and stability of the region.
