RIYADH: Netherlands Ambassador to Saudi Arabia Janet Alberda has praised the Kingdom’s humanitarian work during a meeting with Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, supervisor general of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center.
The two discussed issues of common interest related to humanitarian and relief affairs, as well as means of cooperation in humanitarian and relief work.
Saudi Arabia has a significant mission to fulfill in delivering relief and aid to people in need around the world.
The Kingdom established KSrelief to coordinate and provide international relief, alleviating suffering and providing essentials to crisis-affected communities.
During the meeting, the ambassador praised KSrelief’s international reputation in the field of humanitarian work.
Saudi humanitarian efforts were also lauded by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization when a FAO delegation met Al-Rabeeah in Riyadh last month.
The delegation, headed by Abdulhakim Elwaer, the FAO’s assistant director general and regional representative for the Near East and North Africa, discussed ways to strengthen cooperation on humanitarian aid and food security issues around the world.
The Netherlands ambassador on Tuesday also hosted a gathering of leading women in sports at the embassy in the Diplomatic Quarter.
The event was held as part of International Women’s Day on March 8.
The Netherlands Embassy in Riyadh tweeted: “Today on #IWD2022 #Netherlands ambassador hosted a group of inspiring women who are making history in the field of sports.”
