Hariri Accompanies Saudi King from Jordan to Riyadh

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Prime Minister Saad Hariri accompanied Saudi King Salman to Riyadh aboard a royal Saudi plane after the end of the Arab Summit in Jordan on Wednesday, the PM's office said.

Hariri had also traveled with the monarch onboard a helicopter that carried them from the Arab Summit's venue in the Dead Sea region to the Jordanian capital Amman, the office added.

Al-Akhbar daily had reported that Hariri received an official invitation to visit Saudi Arabia.

The developments come after reports said relations between Lebanon and Saudi Arabia have again suffered a setback following statements made by President Michel Aoun over Hizbullah's arms.

Reports claimed earlier this year that Saudi king had canceled a trip to Lebanon allegedly over displeasure concerning Aoun's statements.

In 2016, Saudi Arabia halted a $3 billion grant for the Lebanese security forces in response to "hostile" stances by Hizbullah and diplomatic positions by Foreign Minister Jebran Bassil.

PM Hariri is already saving the Lebanese taxpayers and treasury by flying to Riyadh for free.

1) what is lebanese about your resistance? lol

2) Why does nassrallah launch his sectarian hateful attacks on KSA when it executes one of its citizens? Is it because the citizen is a shia like you and him?

3) what business is it of nassrallah or iran to criticize the governments of Bahrain, UAE, and Saudi Arabia?

Or you are a hypocrite shiaa follower of wilayat al faqih practicing your takiah lies.

1) everything, whether you saudi and israeli slaves like it or not

2) nasrallah never made sectarian attacks on anyone, you like to distort his words because you know there is nothing you can say against what he actually said. when he spoke he spoke very specifically about the tyrants ruling Arabia, not its people or its religious communities.

3) each person has the right if not the duty to speak against abuses committed by tyrants. this is the very principle you saudis hide behind when you attack the syrian leadership, why would you be immune to criticism yourself?

+) the fact that you compare the saudis putting political and economic pressure on lebanon regarding lebanese matters, and the fact that nasrallah expressed opinions about saudi crimes (and seem indifferent to the first while highly sensitive to the second) show you are more saudi than lebanese.

"3) each person has the right if not the duty to speak against abuses committed by tyrants"

funny he never attacked the syrian regime responsible for the death and torture of hundreds of lebanese.... he and you even defend this...and thank them!

mowaten is a an iranian shia who belongs in a jail cell where torture is the norm. He is a sectarian psychopath paid by the mullahs to spread hate and incitement. He is shameless in his profound hate for anything Arab.

neither you or your fake resistance are lebanese. Spare us your BS and find a job other than trolling.
