In response to a question about the details of the (OPEC +) settlement

Saudi Energy Minister: “What we have in common with the UAE is greater than what you write in your reports.”

The Saudi Energy Minister, Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, sparked an interaction on social media after his statements about reaching a settlement with the UAE regarding the ceiling of oil production for the countries of the (OPEC +) group, and his talk about the strength of relations between the two countries, saying, in response to a journalist’s question, “What brings us together with the UAE is greater.” What do you write in your reports?

The statements of the Saudi Energy Minister came on the sidelines of a press conference, Sunday, to announce that an agreement had been reached, between the UAE and Saudi Arabia, on linking the adjustment of the oil production ceiling to the extension of the (OPEC +) agreement.

In response to a question about the details of the settlement, Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said: “Why should I mention everything, this is an art that I keep secret and we all keep it. You always appreciate that we do not have the competence, we are not smart or diplomatic, and you also had a blind vision about What unites us with us, what brings us together is more than what you write in your reports, unfortunately.”

The Saudi minister asked his Emirati counterpart, Suhail Al Mazrouei, "Am I right, Suhail?"

At that time, the latter responded, appreciating the words of his Saudi counterpart, saying: "100%, you are right, His Highness."

The UAE energy minister said that relations with Saudi Arabia "have allowed us to quickly reach an understanding with OPEC +."

Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman stressed that "there is no one in the world who works on renewable energy as Saudi Arabia and the UAE do," and that the two countries share a great ambition for it, "and we are working identically on this strategy."

After an agreement was reached that satisfies all parties, and Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman confirmed the strength of Saudi-Emirati relations, the tweeters celebrated these historical words.

The tweeters widely circulated the video clip from the press conference, amid great celebration of the words of Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, and an affirmation of the strength of the brotherly relations that unite Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
