Saudi multi billionaire Al Waleed bin Talal sent a following text about his brother (Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman) to one of his confidant 48 hours earlier to his arrest:
" The fourth Saudi state is being built under the leadership of my brother, Prince Mohammad bin Salman, and our country needs sharp minds like yours. You must come back and share it with us."
What are your thoughts on this article? What do you think about Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman? Whether he a reformist or an opportunist?
Based on the content on the article it, it seems like bin Salman is clearly a Machiavellian opportunist. How can the argument be made that he is a reformist?
Some argue that "His pursuit of economic reforms and aggressive foreign policy could shape Saudi Arabia and the region for decades."
