Were in faraja and before, we talked about the fact that Car Manufacturers have a responsibility to create highquality and safe cars for driving on the roads. Because both of them are government now, that is, direction, industry, and road urbanization, you see, we now have this responsibility in the safety commission, that is, the five factors that i presented to you are among the issues that we are following in the road safety commission. It has a role, no, this is not correct because other factors are also effective. We are following this from that point of view. Last week , we had a meeting with mr. Dr. Ariabadi. It was a meeting on the sidelines to solve the problem. That they demanded from me the same question that you asked, what should we do about safety in cars.

The ceasefire resolution in gaza. They will take it to the United Nations. As the permanent representative of saudi arabia in the United Nations has announced, riyadh will soon present a draft of a new resolution for a ceasefire in gaza to the Security Council. In this resolution, the request for palestines full membership in the United Nations will also be raised.
