[2nd Reuters]-After two oil facilities were attacked on 14 September, dissatisfaction with Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman (34) was erupted from Saudi Arabia royalty and some of the business elite.
According to one senior diplomatic source and five sources connected to the royal family and the business world elite, the Crown Prince, who also serves as the defense minister, could not prevent the attack. Concerns about the defense skills and political abilities of the country are growing. It is said that the crown prince has been tightening too tightly to seize power.
One of the upper class who is connected to the royal family exclaims that there is a lot of disapproval regarding the leadership of the crown prince. He expressed dissatisfaction, "Why couldn't we detect this attack?"
The official also added that some of the upper classes say they don't trust the Crown Prince. The other four informed muscles and senior diplomatic muscles showed the same view.
According to four officials connected with the royal family and the business world, criticism that the Crown Prince's stance on Iran and its involvement in the Yemen civil war led to an attack in some parts of the country. According to the previous five sources and senior diplomatic sources, disappointment has spread to the prince who has been unable to prevent the attack while spending a large amount of defense.
Some of the Saudi elite are also perceived that the Crown Prince is trying to consolidate the power base, which is harming the country. One of the officials close to the government pointed out that the Crown Prince has selected a less experienced person than his predecessor.
However, the Crown Prince is still receiving strong support. One of the group swearing allegiance to the Crown Prince said, “This time the oil facility attack, the Crown Prince will not be personally blown by his position as the most powerful successor. "It's because we are trying to stop the expansion of power, which is a matter of love for the country, and at least as long as the father of the current king is alive, the Crown Prince will not be in danger."
Another senior diplomatic source said that the general Saudi people still want to unite under the Crown Prince as a leader with strong determination and action.
