(AFP) - Saudi Arabia voiced "grave and deep concern" on Tuesday over possible US plans to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, saying the move could have serious implications for the Arab-Israel conflict.
Citing a foreign ministry source, the official Saudi Press Agency said, "Saudi Arabia (expresses) grave and deep concern over reports that the US administration intends to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and to relocate its embassy to Jerusalem," adding, "This step will have serious implications and will further complicate the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It will also obstruct the ongoing efforts to revive the peace process."
