In a statement to the SPA, following the session, Minister of Media Salman Al-Dossary said that the Cabinet reviewed the government's recent activities, particularly those focused on strengthening bilateral relations with brotherly and friendly nations. It also discussed the outcomes of the Kingdom's participation in regional and international meetings, reflecting the country's interest in collective efforts and expanding cooperation scope to achieve the desired aspirations and objectives.
The Cabinet reiterated the Kingdom's emphasis, as expressed during the 42nd Arab Interior Ministers Council, on the need to strengthen security cooperation, integrate and coordinate efforts to combat crime in all its forms, monitor its evolution, and develop a comprehensive security strategy to address shared threats and challenges.
The Cabinet emphasized that the Kingdom's presidency of the GlobE Network reflects the international community's confidence in its ability to drive a major shift in consolidating cooperation among member states, enhance policies, and develop the necessary tools to effectively combat corruption crimes.
The Cabinet welcomed the Jeddah Declaration issued by the 13th Conference of Ministers of Culture in the Islamic World. The declaration outlines a shared vision for leveraging culture to drive social and economic progress, safeguard Islamic heritage, and foster collaborative efforts to address global challenges.
On the occasion of Founding Day, which falls on February 22, the Cabinet expressed its pride in the history of the Saudi State, its deep-rooted heritage, and its three-century-long civilization and commended the nation's achievements in fostering unity, justice, and continuous progress and development.
Al-Dossary stated that the Cabinet deemed the Kingdom's prominent position among the top ten global markets for battery energy storage, coinciding with the start of operations at the 2000-megawatt-hour-capacity Bisha project, as a testament to the transformation underway within the energy sector, further solidifying the Kingdom's leadership in energy production and export.
The Cabinet acknowledged the success of the fourth LEAP25 conference, which was held in Riyadh under the theme "Into New Worlds" and featured the announcement of over $14.9 billion in investments and launches.
