Saudi FM: Era of relying on US is over

Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan has delivered a sharp public rebuke of the United States, declaring that the era of relying on American security guarantees is over. In a video statement, he questioned President Donald Trump's ability to protect other nations when he 'cannot even protect his own country.' This marks a significant rhetorical escalation in Saudi Arabia's public posture toward its traditional ally, reflecting deep-seated frustrations with U.S. policy under the Trump administration.
