Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, held talks in Jeddah on Wednesday with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
The officials tackled bilateral relations between their friendly countries and cooperation in various fields and means to bolster it.
They also reviewed regional and international developments and efforts exerted towards them.
The meeting was attended by Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, Saudi Arabia's Ambassador to the United States; Prince Faisal bin Farhan bin Abdullah, Minister of Foreign Affairs; and Dr. Musaed bin Mohammed Al-Aiban, Minister of State, Cabinet Member, and National Security Advisor, and several US officials.
Blinken had arrived in the Kingdom late on Tuesday for talks aimed at bolstering relations between Riyadh and Washington.
He was set to meet with the United States’ partners in Saudi Arabia and the region.
Spokesperson Matthew Miller said Blinken expressed appreciation for “Saudi Arabia’s leadership in hosting the D-ISIS Ministerial and stressed our joint continued efforts to fight terrorism.”
“The two affirmed their shared commitment to advance stability, security, and prosperity across the Middle East and beyond, including through a comprehensive political agreement to achieve peace, prosperity, and security in Yemen,” he added in a statement.
They discussed deepening economic cooperation, especially in the clean energy and technology fields.
Blinken thanked Crown Prince Mohammed for Saudi Arabia’s support evacuating hundreds of US citizens from Sudan, and for the Kingdom’s ongoing partnership in diplomatic negotiations to stop the fighting there.
