RIYADH: Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman spoke on the phone with French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday, Saudi Press Agency reported.
During the call, they discussed the latest developments in the region and reviewed the efforts exerted to de-escalate the situation in Palestine and Lebanon to achieve security and stability, SPA added.
Macron, who attended a summit of European and Mediterranean leaders in Cyprus on Friday, said earlier on Friday that “stopping the export of weapons” used in Gaza and Lebanon was the only way to end fighting there, and also condemned “deliberate” targeting of UN peacekeepers.
“We all know it. It’s the unique lever that would end it,” Macron said, adding that it was “absolutely unacceptable” that UN peacekeepers in Lebanon were “deliberately targeted” by Israeli forces.
