Saud al-Faisal: ?My statement was taken out of context.?

In a statement to the Saudi Press Agency, on Friday, Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal denied that he had told al-Arabia TV that there was a change in Saudi policy towards Lebanon. ?What has changed is Saudi Arabia?s position regarding mediation between Lebanon and Syria, but the kingdom will always support Lebanese legitimacy,? he said. �Al-Faisal indicated that his country "will continue to back Lebanese legitimacy because it is the basis for Lebanon's stability and its security and safety." He stressed that Riyadh supports any ?Lebanese parliamentary majority?.�Faisal, who reportedly said on Wednesday that Saudi Arabia has abandoned mediation efforts in Lebanon, assured that his recent statement was wrongly interpreted and ?taken out of context.?Hala Najjar- (Tayyar.org English staff)
