Why do Middle Eastern countries commonly use distillation to purify water from the sea in desalination plants?

Many Middle Eastern countries are primarily desert leading to them being unable to provide their citizens with sufficient quantities of freshwater from lakes and rivers. Therefore, they are required to turn to the ocean for water. However, ocean water is salty and unsafe for consumption, so a desalination plant is necessary to make salt water into fresh water that is safe for human consumption.
