摘　　要：Saudi foreign policy entered into a transformation period towardsa de-militarization and de-escalation with the regional and nonregionalactors since the Al-Ula Peace in January 2021. Under thesupervision of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi decision-makers constructed a new domestic power paradigm basedon economic diversification and an ambitious Saudi nationdescribed in the 2030 Saudi Vision. Accordingly, the changingregional security perceptions of the regional actors based on diplomaticmanoeuvres awakened Saudi Arabia to invest in buildingsoft power apart from the religious leadership in the Muslimworld. Thus, the King Salman period experiences producing aSaudi soft power in cultural, social, political, and economic wayswhile silencing the religious rhetoric in foreign policy making.
