The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs has welcomed the reform measures taken by the Palestinian leadership, including the creation of the position of Vice-Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and Vice President of the State of Palestine, and the appointment of Hussein Al-Sheikh to this position.

The ministry wished Al-Sheikh success in his new duties.

The Kingdom affirmed that these reform steps will enhance Palestinian political efforts and contribute to achieving the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, foremost among them the right to self-determination through the establishment of an independent state along the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
