Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan bin Abdullah announced the launch of the "International Alliance to Implement the Two-State Solution", with the first meeting of the alliance to be held in Riyadh.

In his speech at the UN ministerial meeting on the Palestinian issue, the Saudi Foreign Minister said, “In the name of Arab and Islamic countries and European partners, the (International Coalition for the Implementation of the Two-State Solution) has been launched, and we invite you to join this initiative, stressing that we will do our utmost to achieve a reliable and irreversible path to a just and comprehensive peace. We look forward to hearing what you have to contribute to ending this conflict, in order to preserve international peace and security.”

Faisal bin Farhan stressed that "the establishment of an independent Palestinian state is a fundamental right and a basis for peace. We affirm our appreciation for the countries that recently recognized Palestine and call on all countries to be courageous and take the same decision and join the international consensus represented by 149 countries that recognize Palestine."

The Saudi Foreign Minister added: "We wonder what remains of the credibility and legitimacy of the international system in the face of our inability to stop the war machine?" The Saudi Foreign Minister continued, saying: "Self-defense cannot justify the killing of tens of thousands of civilians, the practice of systematic destruction, and forced displacement."

Faisal bin Farhan explained that "the war on Gaza caused a humanitarian disaster and serious violations by Israeli forces in the West Bank, in addition to threatening Al-Aqsa Mosque."
