First and foremost, I acknowledge that I am not well-versed in the realms of international or local football. My limitations may extend to following specific clubs, but due to my professional work, I've observed that football has been a source of great interest and passion for Saudis for decades.When Saudi Arabia embarked on the path of planning and defining future goals through the Vision 2030 programs, the higher authorities, under the astute and dynamic leadership of Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman, the architect of the vision and reform, devised a unique mechanism to support the sports sector, particularly football, the most popular sport globally.This was achieved through the Public Investment Fund (PIF), Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund, which allowed...

The Saudi ‘genie’ takes off despite the attempts of those who look at every move or statement made by Riyadh with envy, hatred and political stupidity.This distressed ‘clique,’ instead of looking at the cup to see if it is half full, seeks, as usual, to turn it upside down, and then begin to define their previously known positions. It is as if they are denying Saudi Arabia’s lofty position in its capacity as the regional heavyweight, as well as its Islamic standing, its international influence, and the multiplicity of vital files that it is holding onto at the economic, political, security and regional levels.Saudi Arabia is not shaken by these ‘empty antics.’ These stupid hate-mongers do not affect its policies, no matter how many ‘lies and fallacies’ they fabricate.The...

Saudi Arabia moves forward with lofty missions disregarding its detractors
By Catherine Corm-KammounAs Consul General of France, it is my great honor to celebrate the French National Day, "Bastille Day", here in Jeddah, with our compatriots from the Western province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with our Saudi friends. Celebrated since 1880, July 14 is a moment of pride and national unity, which brings together all citizens to honor their history, remember what gives meaning to the republican pact, and look ahead to the future.Celebrating July 14 in Jeddah is also an opportunity to celebrate the friendship between French and Saudis, which is based on solid and ancient foundations, and has grown stronger over the years. Since the dawn of the relationship between France and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in the year 1839, about two centuries ago, when...

Italian-Saudi relations grow stronger
Sports and fashion have developed a remarkable symbiotic relationship with evident connections between the two industries. These connections are particularly visible in the official attire worn by individual players, as well as by players of clubs and national teams at various levels of competition, including national, regional, and international events.Fashion, as an industry, has traditionally thrived within the confines of exclusive events such as Milan, Rome, Paris, London, and New York fashion festivals. However, the need for a more inclusive platform that transcends the geographical and socio-cultural barriers has grown more urgent in the modern age.On the other hand, sports-inspired fashion has also taken the urban lifestyle by storm. Sports apparel brands such as Nike, Adidas,...

Space exploration is a symbol of national pride and ambition
It is very easy to take for granted all the modern luxuries in our lives — television, mobile phones, traveling the world in airplanes, communicating via the internet, even machines to make coffee for us.For millions of years, all these things did not even enter people’s wildest dreams, as man lived like animals.But then something happened to unleash the power of our imagination — we learned to talk.As the English scientist Professor Stephen Hawking said, speech has allowed the communication of ideas, allowing us to work together to build the impossible.“Mankind's greatest achievements have come about by talking, and its greatest failures by not talking,” he said.This quote alone is what became lodged in my mind upon hearing news that Syria would return to the Arab...
