Prince of Saudi Arabia: Hitler has been better compared to Iranian leader

In the interview, which took place prior to the recent clashes at the Gaza Strip, the Crown Prince has stressed the need to ensure peace, stability and normalisation of relations. Bin Salman has said that Saudi Arabia has no “problem with Jews” and they share a lot of interests with Israel,” underlining that Israelis and Palestinians have a right to create their own states.

I believe that every people, anywhere, have their right to live in their countries peacefully. I believe Palestinians and Israelis have the right to live in their countries. But we have to reach a peaceful agreement to ensure stability and normal relations for all,” he said.

The Saudi prince has also spoken of the tensions his country has with Tehran, which he has called a “evil triangle”.

I think the supreme leader of Iran is making Hitler look better. Hitler didn't do things that the Iranian leader is trying to do. But the Supreme Leader is trying to fight the world. He is Hitler of the Middle East. In the 1920s and 1930s, no one said Hitler was dangerous, including a few. We do not want what happened in Europe to repeat in the Middle East,” said Bin Salman.
