The Saudi Ministry of Media has unveiled the third edition of the Media Oasis in New Delhi from Sept. 9 to 11, 2023, coinciding with Saudi Arabia's participation in the G20 Leaders' Summit and the official visit of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman to India.

The third edition is considered the first international edition of the Media Oasis to be held outside the Kingdom. It is a testament to Saudi Arabia's leading role in media, culture, and tourism and the significant transformation taking place in the country under Vision 2030.

The Media Oasis is one of the new initiatives launched by the Ministry of Media with the aim of redefining media coverage, utilizing modern technology to achieve more creativity and innovation in covering national events, major occasions, and Saudi Arabia's international engagements.

The Media Oasis, organized in strategic partnership with the NEOM, showcases more than 20 projects in 12 pavilions, presenting the achievements of major transformative projects in Saudi Arabia.

The Ministries of Energy, Sports, Investment, and Culture, the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority, the Red Sea Global, the Royal Institute for Traditional Arts, the Future Investment Initiative, and the Government Communication Center are participating in the Media Oasis.

The Oasis features interactive models of Saudi Arabia's major projects, using advanced technologies that allow visitors to explore these initiatives in a unique way.

Visitors can also engage directly with experts to get accurate information and answers to their questions, contributing to a precise understanding of the projects.

It is expected that the Oasis will be visited by more than 2,000 visitors, including officials participating in the G20 Summit, businessmen, and journalists from various countries worldwide and from India.

The Oasis is also hosting more than 50 media outlets and 200 media professionals who have come to cover the G20 Leaders' Summit in India from Sept. 9 to 11, 2023.

Through the Media Oasis, the Ministry aims to provide visitors with a comprehensive experience, allowing them to pass through all the sections of the Oasis, engaging their minds, senses, and emotions, making them feel as if they are visiting these projects and initiatives in person.

It is worth noting that this international edition of the Oasis is the third after two local editions.

The first was held in conjunction with the 32nd Arab Summit in Jeddah on May 18 and 19, 2023, and the second was held in conjunction with the Grand Annual Hajj Symposium from June 20 to 22, 2023.

The Foreign Ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council have condemned the escalation in Lebanon and the Palestinian territories, and emphasized the necessity of protecting the region's security.

In a statement following a meeting of the GCC Ministerial Council in Doha on Wednesday, the ministers said the escalation poses a threat to international peace and security and undermines efforts for peace and security in the region and the world.

The ministers “emphasized the necessity of protecting the region's security and preventing the expansion of the conflict.”

The Council also called on all parties involved in this escalation to exercise restraint, cease violence, and prioritize dialogue.

The statement urged the international community to fulfill its responsibilities to maintain security and stability in the region and to implement international legitimacy resolutions related to the area.

On Lebanon, the ministers affirmed the GCC’s support for the Lebanese people, and called for “intensifying international and regional efforts to provide urgent humanitarian assistance to Lebanon to alleviate the suffering of civilians and protect them from any serious repercussions.”

“The Council stressed the necessity of implementing UN Security Council Resolution 1701, related international resolutions, and the Taif Agreement to restore lasting security and stability in Lebanon and ensure respect for the integrity of its territory, political independence, and sovereignty within its internationally recognized borders,” said the statement.

On Palestine, the Council also affirmed the GCC’s support for the Palestinian people, condemning the Israeli aggression against Gaza and the West Bank.

“It called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, the lifting of the blockade imposed on the area, and the release of hostages and detainees.”

The ministers “emphasized the importance of opening all crossings immediately and unconditionally, ensuring the delivery of all relief, humanitarian, medical supplies, and basic needs to the residents of Gaza in accordance with international law and international humanitarian law.”

The Council emphasized the importance of the efforts of the Ministerial Committee chaired by “Saudi Arabia, which was formed by the extraordinary joint Arab-Islamic summit to stop the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people, as well as to mobilize international support for the State of Palestine in its quest for recognition by more countries, in addition to supporting its bid for full membership in the United Nations, and to convene an international peace conference.”

The ministers also reaffirmed the need to end Israeli occupation, and the support for the sovereignty of the Palestinian people over all Palestinian territories occupied since June 1967.

They called for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, in accordance with the Arab Peace Initiative and international resolutions.

The Council expressed its support for the outcomes of the Ministerial Meeting held by the committee chaired by Saudi Arabia, which was formed by the extraordinary Arab-Islamic summit in collaboration with Norway and the European Union in order to launch the “The Global Alliance for the Implementation of the Two-state Solution” to realize the Palestinian state, in accordance with relevant UN resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative.
