The orders came after the King received at his palace here
today a top level Egyptian delegation led by the Speakers of the two chambers
of the Egyptian parliament, the People's Assembly and Al-Shoura Council, Dr.
Mohammed Sa'ad Al-Katatni and Dr. Ahmed Fahmi, respectively, in addition to a
number of these two chambers, prominent political leaders and representatives
of various Egyptian segments.
The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques addressed the
audience, pointing to the common shared history between the two countries which
is based on the unity of religion and mutual support to guarantee the
prevalence of right, thus such a relation is neither an easy page to be
spoiled, nor it is disputable, compromising priority, nor it is exposed to any
act that may cancel or downgrade it.
This relation is based on basis of respect of difference but
not on basis of rivalry. The admonition between the brethren is as a wider door
to allow rationality and awareness. This fact may permit duplication to pass
and mar it. Let me announce that Egypt, with its sorrows, wishes and ambitions
is at the heart of the Kingdom, and vice versa, the King remarked.
Dear brethren, what happened, recently and marred the
relations between the two countries, is hearting to any honorable Saudi and
Egyptian citizen, and our decision to recall the ambassador and to close the
embassy were made to protect its employees against any unacceptable
consequences, the King added.
From the Kingdom of King Abdulaziz, I tell you that we are
happy at your presence as it reflects the noble ethics stemming from our
Islamic creed, welcome to your country, government and people, and against this
noble stance, I have nothing to say but to tell you that we will not allow this
passing crisis to be prolonged, and I am hopeful that the Egyptian and Saudi
media will took a noble stance and say what is good or keep silent, the King
concluded.
