Alsharq Tribune-Ahmed Essam
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Syrian interim leader Ahmed al-Sharaa discussed bilateral relations and ways to strengthen cooperation across various sectors on Wednesday, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
The meeting took place on the sidelines of the ninth Future Investment Initiative conference in Riyadh.
During the event, al-Sharaa said Syria's reconstruction would heavily rely on investment, noting that the country had attracted about 28 billion U.S. dollars in investment over the past six months. He expressed confidence in the resilience and determination of the Syrian people.
This marks Al-Sharaa's third visit to Saudi Arabia since he became Syria's interim leader. In July, Saudi Arabia signed investment and partnership deals with Syria worth 6.4 billion dollars to support post-war reconstruction.
