Saudi Arabia slams new Israeli law, says it ‘perpetuates racial discrimination’

Saudi Arabia on Saturday slammed the law terming it as ‘perpetuating racial discrimination’ against Palestinians

The law which was adopted by Israel’s parliament on Thursday July 19,2018  defines the establishment of Jewish communities as being in the national interest. It also downgrades Arabic from an official language to one with special status.

Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman earlier in April during an interview said that Israelis, as well as Palestinians “, have the right to have their own land”. Even after accounting for some 17.5 per cent of Israel’s more than eight million population, Arab citizens have long complained of discrimination.
