RIYADH: Crown Prince Mohammed bin Naif, minister of interior, will travel to Turkey and meet with top Turkish officials including President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Prime Minister Binali Yildirim on Thursday for the first time since the attempted coup in Turkey in July.

The crown prince will also hold talks with Turkish business leaders, according to reports published Sunday in local Arabic media here.
“The crown prince will be accompanied by several high-ranking Saudi officials including Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir and Majid Al-Qassabi, minister of commerce and investment,” said a reliable source, while giving details about the royal visit.
He said that the crown prince will hold wide-ranging consultations with the Turkish president and prime minister during his two-day stay in Turkey.
The visit of the crown prince, ahead of the meeting of the high-profile Saudi-Turkish Strategic Cooperation Council, is significant, keeping in view the close ties between the two countries.
Turkey has also been vocal on the US’ Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA), and has vehemently opposed the bill. Erdogan, in fact, called on the US and the US officials, including President Barack Obama, to veto the bill.
