Global Cooperation and Groundbreaking Innovations: Key Discussions from Jeddah to Seoul

Global experts convene in Jeddah to develop a regional action plan for marine conservation, spotlighting the Red Sea's endangered sea turtles.
Recently, global experts gathered in Jeddah at the first International Symposium for the Conservation of Sea Turtles in the Red Sea to discuss pioneering strategies for marine conservation; hosted by the General Organization for the Conservation of Coral Reefs and Turtles, they worked towards a comprehensive regional action plan.

Meanwhile, in political news, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reached out to congratulate Donald Trump on his U.S. election victory, discussing shared concerns over Israeli security and the Iranian threat, with both leaders expressing warmth and a commitment to collaborate.

Adding a twist to political developments, Trump, despite his known stance on Israel, surprisingly captured Muslim voter support in Dearborn, Michigan, by promising to resolve Middle East conflicts, a move aided by Lebanese-American Michael Boulos that split votes favorably against Kamala Harris and Jill Stein.

Turning to economic expansion, Saudi Arabia is set to shine with its Vision 2030 and $147 billion airport development strategy, showcased at the upcoming Saudi Airport Exhibition in Riyadh, which promises to foster partnerships and highlight sustainability in aviation.

In diplomatic matters, Prince Abdullah bin Bandar bin Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia strengthened ties with South Korea during his Seoul visit, meeting President Yoon Suk Yeol, where they exchanged cordial greetings and discussed enhancing bilateral relationships during the Korean Ministry of National Defense military parade.

Lastly, on a groundbreaking note, Saudi Arabia made history with the world's first fully robotic heart transplant on a teenager, conducted by a team at King Faisal Specialist Hospital, and celebrated by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for its substantial medical innovation achievement.
