A day after Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman signed a memorandum for an economic corridor between India and the Middle East, Pakistan’s foreign minister confirmed that the prince’s visit to the country has still not been finalised.
Jilani said that Saudi Arabia is a close friend of Pakistan and there are multiple layers to the relations between the two countries including political and economic dimensions.
Jilani said that there was no ‘firm date’ for the visit yet but added that the government as well as the people of Pakistan will always welcome a top-level visit from Saudi Arabia.
When asked if the matter of the visit had been formally conveyed and the visit was confirmed, he expressed hope that the visit would take place because it was the wish of Prince Salman as well
