The
Saudi official platform revealed that Egypt topped the list of countries that
benefited most from Saudi aid, with a total of US$32.49 billion, followed by
Yemen with US$27.69 billion, and then Pakistan with US$13.19 billion. The list
of countries that benefited the most also included Syria (US$7.53 billion) Iraq
(US$7.33 billion) and Palestine (US$5.37 billion).
These figures reflect the Kingdom's commitment to its
humanitarian and development role by supporting peoples and countries in
confronting humanitarian crises and natural disasters, and achieving
sustainable development.
These efforts are part of the realization of Saudi Vision
2030 goals that focus on strengthening international partnerships and
establishing the Kingdom as a pillar of regional and international peace and
stability, under the leadership of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King
Salman and Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman.
It is noteworthy that the Saudi Aid Platform is the precise
electronic reference for the Kingdom's foreign contributions. The platform is
divided into three categories: humanitarian, development and philanthropic
projects, contributions to international organizations and bodies, and
visitors’ services (refugees living inside the Kingdom).
The Saudi Aid Platform, inaugurated by King Salman in 2018,
highlights the size and type of assistance provided by Saudi Arabia. The King
Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) re-launched this platform.
Due to the multiplicity of Saudi donor entities, this
platform has become an imperative and effective tool for collecting,
coordinating and documenting statistics on international assistance provided by
the Kingdom to countries and people in need around the world.
