CAIRO: The Speaker of the Shoura Council, Sheikh Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Ibrahim Al Al-Sheikh, led Saudi Arabia’s delegation at the Seventh Conference of the Arab Parliament and the Presidents of Arab Councils and Parliaments, held at the League of Arab States headquarters in Cairo on Saturday.

The conference focused on strengthening Arab parliamentary unity, with a key agenda item dedicated to supporting the Palestinian people and rejecting any proposals for their forced displacement.

As part of the discussions, participants worked on formulating a unified Arab parliamentary stance to advocate for Palestinian rights.

A significant outcome of the conference was the planned issuance of a unified Arab parliamentary action plan, which would outline concrete steps that Arab parliamentarians can take in support of the Palestinian cause.

Ahead of its official approval, the Presidents of Arab Councils and Parliaments held a closed consultative session to finalize the main aspects of the plan, which will later be submitted to the Arab Summit for potential adoption.

The Kingdom’s delegation to the conference included the Secretary-General of the Shoura Council, Mohammed bin Dakhil Al-Mutairi, along with council members Saad bin Salib Al-Otaibi, Tariq bin Saeed Al-Shammari, Hanan bint Abdullah Al-Sammari, Abdullah bin Abdulaziz bin Aifan, and Amal bint Abdulaziz Al-Hazani, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
