His Excellency emphasized the fact that this Conference is a message of grateful recognition to the late Prince, in consideration of all what he awarded for his religion, his country and his nation; it is also an initiative to explicitly acknowledge the Kingdom's loyalty to the late Prince, through its King, government and people; it is as well an initiative that expresses sincerely and explicitly his special place in the hearts of all the Saudi people. The auspices of the Custodian of the two Holy Mosques, May Allah protect Him, are the expression of the wise leadership's interest in honoring one of the prominent citizens who devoted their entire life at the service of their religion, nation and king.

Paying tribute to late Prince Saud al-Faisal is honoring the Saudi diplomacy, so He is a national stature, highly experienced and well informed in political and diplomatic action, being contemporaneous with many regional and international events, which he managed to tackle through his competence and his worldly recognized wisdom.

His late Royal Highness represents an important phase in the history of Saudi diplomacy, where he assumed the Kingdom's diplomacy throughout forty years leaving behind an imposing infrastructure of his country's foreign policy making. He was characterized by his clear and profound political vision in many issues and international events. Furthermore his efforts and his role in the Saudi diplomacy are memorable, as well as upholding its principles and interests, yet the principles and interests of the two Arabic and Islamic nations.
