PressTV - Saudi Arabia: Extreme wealth and poverty

PressTV - Saudi Arabia: Extreme wealth and poverty:



"Despite being world’s biggest crude exporter, large percentage of the people in Saudi Arabia live below the country’s poverty line.



Activists in Saudi Arabia have repeatedly criticized Riyadh for spending vast sums on buying arms from the West and not helping the millions living in poverty.



In addition to the Saudi government’s disproportionate allocation of country’s wealth the intrinsic corruption within Saudi Arabia’s royal family seems to be exacerbating the poverty and unemployment problem in the country."
