Today we commemorate the seventh anniversary of King Salman’s reign over the Kingdom. We remember that remarkable day with great joy, during which people pledged allegiance to an inspiring leader who accomplished, through his wise vision, more than the reckoning of years. 

In just a few years, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia became a magnet in politics, economy, culture and all fields.

King Salman, who is well versed in the history of this nation and an expert in its challenges, has reduced the years of achievement and change thanks to his deep knowledge of his people, their land and his awareness of their true needs. By doing so, he outdid all the previous judgments that claimed to be familiar with the Saudi people and their priorities. We were able to make strides in a few years, we thought would take us many decades.

The qualities of firmness, determination, and vigor are embodied in the leadership of King Salman, to the point where these qualities became a popular culture that seeks the top and we are reaping achievements on a daily basis. With his wise leadership, the leader who is well aware of his people’s strengths was able to burst their energies, sharpen their determination and aim their ambitions higher than the sky.

The Kingdom also witnessed during the reign of King Salman a transformation that will be commemorated in history. The wisdom and foresight of King Salman led him to put his precious trust in Prince Mohammed bin Salman, to be the Crown Prince and an outstanding leader for the youth of his country towards achieving the Kingdom’s vision 2030. The Vision was the real breakthrough through which wisdom met the spirit, knowledge and strength of youth and is leading them towards the permanent youth of this great nation.

During the reign of King Salman, Saudi Arabia has assumed a prominent position in the world. We have gone beyond traditional roles to adopting and supporting global initiatives that have a direct impact on all of humanity, the latest of which was the Green Saudi Initiative. This initiative represents the Kingdom’s contribution of more than 4% to achieving the goals of the global initiative to reduce land degradation and wild habitats and 1% of the global target for planting a trillion trees.

We renew our pledge and loyalty to King Salman and to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman – may God protect them, asking God to preserve our wise leadership and to extend our country’s security and prosperity.
