TEHRAN, April 10 - The Saudi Crown Prince's visit to the French official has been followed by numerous tensions, Lebanon's al-Akhbar reported.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Contrary to Mohammed bin Salman's visit of to the United States, it seems his trip to France was contencious. he has tried to threaten the French officials to exclude them from Saudi Arabia's 2030 trade contracts, if France insists on a business partnership with Iran.
The young crown prince has already visited three Western countries, Britain, US, and now France. In US he stayed for three weeks and in France for three days.
French analysts say that the Saudi prince likes Americans more and looks at the French with fear and suspicion.
France is the world’s third biggest arms exporter and counts Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates among its biggest purchasers.
Paris has come under fierce criticism by rights groups at home and abroad for selling arms to the Saudi regime, which is involved, along with a number of its allies, in a bloody military campaign against Yemen, the Arabian Peninsula’s poorest nation.
The Saudi military campaign has killed and injured over 600,000 civilians since its onset in March 2015, according to the latest figures released by the Yemeni Ministry of Human Rights.
