The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has condemned all terrorist acts and attacks on religious sites and places of worship, affirming its support for the United Nations Plan of Action to Safeguard Religious Sites. This came during the Kingdom's speech at the high-level meeting called by the Secretary-General of the United Nations on the occasion of the launch of the United Nations Plan of Action to Safeguard Religious Sites, which was delivered by the Deputy Permanent Representative of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the United Nations, Dr. Khalid bin Mohammed Manzalawi, at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. The Kingdom's speech stressed that the religious and cultural diversity among societies and peoples never justifies clash, but requires action to develop dialogue and build peace.
