Syria's Shara, MBS Discuss Regional Security

The visit follows an April trip as Riyadh expands investments in Syria’s infrastructure, aviation and telecommunications, Reuters said.

  • Syrian President Ahmad Sharaa arrived in Riyadh on Tuesday for an official visit to meet Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed, according to the Syrian news agency SANA.
  • Since the fall of Bashar Assad, Saudi Arabia has emerged as a key regional partner for Damascus, increasing investments in infrastructure, aviation, and telecommunications.
  • Sharaa is accompanied by Foreign Minister Assaad Shaibani on this visit, which comes less than six months after his previous trip to Saudi Arabia in April.
  • The two leaders discussed bilateral relations and ways to boost cooperation between the two countries, though no further details were made public regarding their talks.
  • Houthi rebels have increased attacks on Saudi airports, a backdrop to this visit following the leaders' late July phone call aimed at reducing regional tensions.
