The Polish Embassy hosted a reception to mark Independence Day and the Day of the Polish Armed Forces. This day is unique for all Poles and is celebrated as the official anniversary of Poland's return to the map of sovereign European states after 123 years of partitions and foreign rule.

“Maintaining the independence and securing lasting and sustainable development requires carefully chosen allies and friends. The history of Polish-Saudi diplomatic relations goes over 90 years back. We want to build on this sound foundation and guarantee a bright future for Poland, Saudi Arabia and all our friends,” stated Ambassador H.E. Robert Rostek in his triumphant speech.

The highlight of the celebration became the special concert by the Polish Navy Club Vocal Ensemble "Riwiera,” the artistic heir and continuer of the tradition of the Navy Stage Ensemble 'Flotylla'. The ensemble is known for its central role in most of the historical events of modern Poland. This celebration became one such historic event, marking independence and diplomacy in the heart of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

On the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the proclamation of Angola's Independence and the foundation of the Republic of Angola, the Ambassador H.E. Frederico Cardoso and Mrs. Paulina Cardoso hosted a reception at the Cultural Palace of DQ. The history of the Angolan people's struggle for independence spans centuries, from the courage and diplomacy of Queen Nzinga-a-Mbandi in the 17th century to the generations that laid the foundations of modern Angola in the first half of the 20th century.

"As we commemorate these fifty years of independence, we pay simple homage to all those who fell in this unequal struggle. We also take this opportunity to renew our recognition of those who, throughout these years of independence, have raised and kept high the flag of our homeland and defended the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Angola," stated Ambassador Cardoso in his speech.

H.E. Frederico Cardoso further highlighted that it is with this spirit of openness, partnership, vision for the future, and positive attitude that Angola views the relations with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Ambassador Cardoso concluded his remarks by stating that the Angolan government reaffirms its commitment to cooperating with the Saudi Arabian government, Saudi and Angolan companies, and investors from both countries, so that every endeavor becomes a bridge to prosperity for both countries.

On the occasion of the National Day of the Republic of Korea, His Excellency the Chargé d'Affaires a.i. and his spouse Mr. and Mrs. Byung Jun Moon hosted a reception to celebrate the shared journey of friendship and trust that Korea and Saudi Arabia have walked together.

"Since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1962, our two countries have walked the path of partnership for 63 years. Today, Saudi Arabia stands as one of Korea’s most important partners in the Middle East, the largest supplier of crude oil, a foremost and most trusted partner in overseas construction, and a reliable companion in our mutual progress and prosperity," stated H.E. Byung Jun Moon.

As Saudi Arabia's efforts extend beyond national development under Vision 2030, H.E. Byung Jun Moon also emphasized Korea's sincere support for the Kingdom on this path of transformation. The beauty of harmony and diversity in the modern Kingdom is a value that Korea deeply shares and respects.
