I am sure that NEOM will directly benefit Saudi Arabia, but will NEOM be a part of Saudi Arabia or will it be considered a country of its own? There are a lot of rumors around NEOM that haven't been neither confirmed or denied.

I will hold my breath before I show my full support to NEOM.

NEOM will be part of Saudi Arabia.

NEOM is one project of many projects ongoing in Saudi Arabia to modernize the country and transition away from fossil fuels. I am looking forward to it.
