26 Nov 2016 - 16:40


IFP- In a handwritten and signed letter dated 1347 AH (1928-29), Abdulaziz, the founder of Saudi Arabia, has referred to �Persian Gulf� using its correct name.

This body of water has been historically known as �Persian Gulf�; however, some Arab countries has insisted on using the false term �Arabian Gulf� since 1960s. International organisations continue to use �Persian Gulf� and never accepted its alternative. The dispute still goes on.
