Regarding a recent incident in which a member of a delegation visiting the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia - Rabbi Abraham Cooper - was denied entry to Diriyah Gate, we would like to convey the following clarification: This unfortunate incident was the result of a misunderstanding of internal protocols.
The matter was escalated to senior officials, and HRH the Ambassador had the opportunity to speak with the Rabbi.
The matter was resolved but we respect his decision to not continue the tour.
We look forward to welcoming him back to the Kingdom.
