Saudi Arabia’s Cabinet said that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s official visit to the Kingdom last week demonstrated the strength of relations between the two countries.

The Cabinet, meeting in the capital Riyadh, chaired by King Salman bin Abdulaziz, was briefed on talks held between President Erdogan and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).

The Cabinet said on Tuesday that the visit highlighted the solid nature of bilateral ties and reflected the will to strengthen cooperation across various fields, saying this was concretely demonstrated through agreements and memorandums of understanding signed during the visit.

The Cabinet also authorised the energy minister to hold talks and sign framework and cooperation agreements with Türkiye and Jordan on the peaceful use of nuclear energy.

The Turkish president visited Saudi Arabia on February 3 and later travelled to Egypt, during which agreements were signed with the two countries in various fields, particularly energy.
