Saudi Foreign Minister to arrive in Islamabad today

Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir is coming to Pakistan today (Thursday) on an important two-day visit.

According to local media, the Saudi minister is set to meet PM Nawaz Sharif, Advisor to PM on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz and other senior officials.

Pakistan’s inclusion and its role in a Saudi-led 34-country coalition against terrorism will be the point of discussion, local media reported.

The Saudi minister is also set to have talks with the Pakistani leadership on different aspects of bilateral relations and regional and international issues of mutual interest.

The foreign minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was scheduled to visit Pakistan on January 3 but it was postponed after a rise in tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran, after Iranian protestors ransacked the Saudi Embassy in Tehran and Riyadh cut diplomatic ties with Iran.
