Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi, the Omani Minister of Foreign Affairs, called for the need to compensate the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip for the loss of innocent lives and those affected by the Israeli war on the Strip, and the need to make a collective and comprehensive effort to alleviate the suffering of the painful humanitarian crisis faced by the brotherly Palestinian people.
In an interview with the American CNN network in the program “Connecting the World with Becky Anderson,” Al-Busaidi touched on the critical and tragic situation in the Gaza Strip, calling on the international community to play a vital role in securing sustainable peace and taking rapid measures to achieve it, and the urgent need for a unified and bold approach towards peace and humanitarian relief.
He pointed to the escalating tensions in the Red Sea, which underscores the complexity of regional dynamics, noting the importance of engaging all parties in the dialogue, and that real progress can only be achieved by having the courage to engage in dialogue with those who have strongly opposing views and opinions.
He stressed the Sultanate of Oman’s commitment to peace and stability in the region and the international community more broadly, calling on world leaders and all parties to join concerted efforts to confront these challenges directly, with courage and conviction.
