Riyadh: Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Tuesday met with his Saudi counterpart Faisal bin Farhan in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh, Trkiye's Foreign Ministry announced on X. The meeting, which underscores the continued diplomatic engagement between Turkey and Saudi Arabia, comes amid a backdrop of evolving regional dynamics and growing bilateral ties.

According to Anadolu Agency, no further details about the meeting have been disclosed. Fidan is visiting Saudi Arabia with an agenda expected to highlight the strengthening political relations between the two nations. He aims to discuss the potential for further boosting the rapidly expanding bilateral trade volume, reflecting the mutual interest in enhancing economic ties.

In addition to trade discussions, the Turkish foreign minister is anticipated to address the importance of the international community's increasing involvement with Syria's new administration. Fidan is likely to commend Saudi Arabia's constructive stance in this context, as regional stability remains a pivotal concern for both countries.

The meeting follows a series of diplomatic exchanges between the two nations. The Saudi foreign minister previously visited Trkiye on July 14 last year, and Fidan had also traveled to Riyadh earlier this month to participate in a multilateral meeting on Syria, where he engaged in discussions with his Saudi counterpart.
