Social media platforms in Saudi Arabia witnessed widespread interaction with the US elections, amid criticism of Saudi Arabia's disregard for congratulating US President-elect Joe Biden at a time when it congratulated the President of Tanzania on his re-election.
Although 24 hours have passed since the US media announced that the Democratic candidate, Joe Biden, had won the US presidential elections, Saudi Arabia was the only country in the Arab Gulf that did not congratulate the Democratic candidate on winning.
Questions arose among Saudi singers about why an official Saudi congratulation was not issued after Joe Biden's victory over his rival, President Donald Trump in the elections, to become the 46th president of the United States of America.
The American "CNN" channel has contacted the Saudi government to obtain a comment about the questions that revolve around social media activists, but it has not received any response so far.
The official Saudi Press Agency published two tweets on its official account, after Biden’s victory was announced, saying in the first, "The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and His Highness the Crown Prince congratulate the President of United Tanzania on his re-election."

In a separate second tweet, the Saudi agency published, "The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and His Highness the Crown Prince congratulate the King of Cambodia on the anniversary of his country's independence."

It is noteworthy that a number of Arab countries issued statements congratulating Biden’s victory, such as the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman and Kuwait, in addition to Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and others.
And anti-regime tweets saw that the nightmare of killing the Saudi dissident Jamal Khashoggi in the Saudi embassy in Istanbul is still in control, so he does not dare to congratulate Biden.
On the other hand, activists circulated a video clip of Prince Sultan bin Bandar, in which he said that every American president came to treat Saudi Arabia with respect, and every candidate said words during the nomination that he is said to be against the Kingdom, but after his victory, the kingdom remains a friendly country.
Every time a new president arrives at the White House, the intruders come out on the politics table, re-publishing the new president’s statements that he attacked Saudi Arabia.
Their goal is to scare the Saudis out of gloating, not being anxious!
📌 Here is the adequate response, or historical lesson, to such people and those deceived by those who believe them.

Nationalists feel as much pain from the rise of Han Omar and Rasheed to power as they are from losing Trump.

# BIDEN (November 2019): If I win the position of president, I will not sell weapons to Saudi Arabia, and I will make the current Saudi leadership feel that it is a pariah.

The immediate danger to bin Salman if Biden took over
Assigning the CIA to publish its information on the killing of Khashoggi,
forcing him to lift the blockade on Qatar,
stopping weapons and ammunition from the Yemen war,
forcing him to release the Saud family and liberal activists
The non-immediate danger is removing bin Salman
Bin Salman's weapon: sheltering with Israel by normalization

We never need any foreign president to support our oppressed and marginalized peoples in the Arab world..We
just need Western governments to give up support for dictators, dictators, and the corrupt clique that killed people, hurt them and distorted their dreams..Just
leave between the peoples and among themselves .. the
peoples will take over by themselves!

Exactly 4 years ago, King Salman called the then-elected President Donald Trump.
He is almost 24 hours in front of him and calls.

Glory be to God, how can a man’s page be folded in a flash and open another man’s page ..
All the media went to introduce Biden and folded Trump's biography (:

Muhammad bin Salman knows if Biden wins, without a doubt, the Democratic Party will get rid of him. # Ahmed_Ben_Abdulaziz_the King of the Future

One of the most important achievements of # Trump is that he has cut the line of return to the issue of the nuclear agreement with Iran. President Joe Biden has plenty of time to restore oxygen to the nuclear agreement, which may not succeed in attempts to revive it.

You want honesty ..
God bless # Salman_Ben_Abdulaziz and #Mohammed_Ben_Salman and only # Trump or # Biden, and those before them and those after them know what the meaning of #Great Saudi Arabia

⭕️⭕️
these elections are abnormal
Biden’s exit to declare victory with legal cases filed is unnatural and unprecedented
Biden's exit to declare victory before his opponent concedes the loss is unprecedented in American political history
Abnormal events may have an abnormal ending

Trump was not as bad internally as Biden's election campaign depicted, as he succeeded in addressing the unemployment file, as it fell to 3.7%, the lowest level it has reached since the seventies, and on the economic level, the GDP reached more than 20 trillion dollars
