Saudi Arabia 'rejects' US embassy transfer to Jerusalem

The Saudi Arabian government on Tuesday said it opposed the US decision to relocate its Israel embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
"The kingdom rejects the American administration's decision to transfer its embassy to Jerusalem," the



council of ministers said in a state carried by state-run Saudi Press Agency.
"This step represents a significant prejudice against the rights of the Palestinian people which have been guaranteed by international resolutions," it said.
