Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Sunday said he held a "very productive" meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Riyadh, a critical diplomatic engagement as Israel prepared to launch a ground assault in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip and Washington worked to contain the conflict. "Very productive," Blinken replied to a question from a Reuters reporter as he returned to the hotel where the U.S. delegation was staying.
"The two affirmed their shared commitment to protecting civilians and to advancing stability across the Middle East and beyond," Miller added. Israel has vowed to annihilate the militant group Hamas in retaliation for a rampage by its fighters in Israeli towns eight days ago in which its militants shot men, women and children and seized hostages in the worst attack on civilians in the country's history.
Blinken started his tour on Thursday in Israel, voicing robust U.S. support for Washington's closest Middle East ally in its war against Hamas.
