Known for his ruthlessness, he liked to portray himself as a soldier under the command of the king and called himself the country's "first soldier" . His motto is "Do not change, agree to develop". He sees no need for change in Saudi Arabia: "Change means changing what already exists. Everything that exists in the state is established; however, there is room for development — and development does not conflict with the principles of the state. ”
Nayev
Nayef bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud (hereinafter referred to as Nayef) was born in Taif in 1933 as the twenty-third son of the king's father Abdulaziz (founding king Abdulaziz: led dozens of people to restore the country late at night, machete + marriage to rule the peninsula), and the fourth son of Sudri.
Nayev served as head of the Saudi Committee for the Al-Quds Al-Quds Uprising, which provided assistance to Palestine refugees. He also leads the Supreme Information Council, which oversees the media and regulates the country's internet. He also chaired the Supreme Council of Pilgrimage and headed the Ministerial Committee on Ethics and the World Trade Organization Ministerial Oversight Committee.
At the age of 20 he became Vice-Governor of Riyadh Province, and was soon appointed Governor of Riyadh Province and Governor of Medina Region, after which he served as Governor of Riyadh Province and Governor of Medina for seventeen consecutive years. In 1970, the King of Fasial (King Fasial: Born to Be King, Deposed Brother (Part 1)) appointed him Deputy Minister of the Interior and Minister of State for the Interior.
Minister of the Interior
On 30 March 1975, after the assassination of King Fasial, Khalid (King Khalid: forced to take the throne, without a sense of existence, but as a whole, no less than the whole town) took the throne. Then Home Minister Fahd (King Fahd: Playboy?) night owl? Like to tease people? Becoming Crown Prince, Nayev took over as Minister of the Interior.
Since then, Nayev has led the Saudi Interior Ministry, overseeing the country's civilian security forces and maintaining stability within the kingdom. In this role, he gave the religious clergy considerable room to enforce strictly conservative laws.
Nayev greatly mediated King Fahd during his time as Interior Minister (King Fahd: Playboy?). night owl? Like to tease people? and prince Sultan (Sultan/Sultan), as well as disputes over royal office. His mediation was endorsed and supported by King Fahd, which also made his home office one of the most influential bureaucracies in Saudi Arabia. However, as King Fahd's health deteriorated, his power gradually weakened.
PS: During Fahd's rule, Nayef made members of the Interior Ministry be placed at all overseas embassies in Saudi Arabia.
Deputy Crown Prince, Second Deputy Prime Minister
Left: Nayev Right: Abdullah
Since then Crown Prince Sultan was unable to handle a large number of government affairs in Saudi Arabia due to his long absence from treatment, and King Abdullah (King Abdullah: conservative reformer, surviving two successors) was about to travel to Doha for the League of Arab States summit and then to London for the G20 summit, so a senior official had to be held accountable, So on March 27, 2009, Nayef was appointed second deputy prime minister.
PS: Nayev's appointment led to an open split in the royal family. Prince Talal asked King Abdullah to clarify that this appointment does not necessarily mean that Nayev will become a deputy crown prince (deputy crown prince, i.e. crown prince of the crown prince).
Nayev has since presided over many cabinet meetings, which has also extended his influence to all corners of Saudi domestic policy. Later, in some government departments, his photograph was added to the founding kings Abdulaziz, King Abdullah and Crown Prince Sultan, a treatment usually reserved for vice-chancellors. Soon after Nayev was appointed deputy reserve.
As a child, Nayev was educated in a specialized royal school in Riyadh, where religious teachers stressed the importance of the Quran and Islamic law to their royal students. And that means he's closer than most of his brothers to the Wahhabi religious institutions that confer legitimacy on the royal family.
PS: The highly conservative Wahhabi ideology includes strict gender segregation, mandatory prayer times, and the death penalty, including beheading.
King Abdullah appointed Nayev as Crown Prince and First Deputy Prime Minister on 27 October 2011. Shortly thereafter, he vowed that the Saudis would "never waver and never compromise" in abiding by Wahhabi doctrine. He said Wahhabi doctrine is "a source of pride, success and progress for the Kingdom.".
But Nayef, though known as a conservative and close to Saudi religious institutions, performed very differently in his position.
PS: He himself was, and there were rumors that he was an alcoholic when he was younger.
During Nayev's tenure as deputy prime minister, he abolished "religious authorities opposing the mixing of men and women in public places," but only if the conference "meets the standards of female decency and does not violate Islamic law." And on the condition that women participate in sports activities that "meet the standards of female dignity and do not violate Islamic law", Saudi women are approved to represent Saudi Arabia in the Olympic Games.
PS: Immediately after Nayef approved that Saudi women could represent Saudi Arabia in the Olympic Games, Saudi Olympic Committee President Nawwaf immediately made it clear that Saudi women athletes would not be sent to the Olympic Games, that is, against Nayev's decree.
In addition, he believed that the potential erosion of the official Wahhabi-Salafist doctrine had weakened the core legitimacy of the state itself, so he ordered a boycott of these moves.
He was criticized when what Nayef's so-called ubiquitous security apparatus failed to stop militants from taking over the Grand Mosque in 1979 for a two-week siege, but his subsequent harsh crackdown helped restore his tough reputation as a strongman.
PS: His crackdown is not only directed at extremists, but also at liberal opinion and political reform activists. He is said to have responded to a plea for change with a daunting phrase: "What we win with the sword, we will retain with the sword." ”
He defines his role as "purifying perverse ideas and promoting the vision of Saudi society under the slogan 'Intellectual Security'". After 9/11, Nayef initially refused to accept the involvement of any Saudi nationals, claiming that the incident was committed by Jews. In fact, 15 of the 19 hijackers had ties to the Saudis, but he had been acknowledging it for more than a year.
PS: Nayev's attitude at the time made the United States feel seriously dissatisfied, complaining that he was unwilling to cooperate in the fight against al-Qaida.
Yet when terror took place on Saudi soil, Nayev abruptly shrugged off initial denials, launching not only a three-year crackdown but also personally running what former U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia Charles Freeman called a "very efficient" campaign against terrorism, with hundreds of suspects rounded up. Al-Qaida elements are said to have been wiped out of the country within just three years.
PS: Many people fled to Yemen at that time, and Nayev assisted the authorities there against them.
Before Nayev was appointed second deputy prime minister in 2009, he was often described by those around him as elusive, ambiguous, pragmatic, unimaginative, shrewd and outspoken. And it is revealed that he is known for being anti-Western, but he tends to do business if there is a common interest.
He seemed reserved, even a little shy. He is described as neither speaking nor speaking clearly, and tends to repeat clichés in private and in public, though he does seem to understand and speak at least some English.
PS: Both Nayev and Ahmed (Ahmed) are known for being honest and only spending security budgets for stated purposes, not getting rich.
Nayev suffers from diabetes and osteoporosis as well as leukemia. In March 2012, he went to Morocco for a "private vacation" and then to Cleveland for a pre-planned medical exam. In April of the same year, he returned to Saudi Arabia after a stop in Algeria. He then left Saudi Arabia again on 26 May for treatment for knee disease.
In an interview on June 3, 2012, Ahmed said, "Nayev is in good health ... He will soon be back in Saudi Arabia." But a few days later Nayev died of a heart attack at his brother's residence abroad. In accordance with his wishes, his body was buried in an unmarked grave at the Al Adl Cemetery in Mecca.
