WASHINGTON: Executive Director of the Middle East Policy Council in the United States Thomas Mattair hailed the current visit of Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to the United States, stressing that the visit will strengthen the Saudi-US partnership at various levels.
In a statement to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA), Mattair said that the deputy crown prince’s current visit, during which he met with US President Barack Obama, a number of officials and investors, will strengthen the Saudi-US partnership and push it to higher levels, to reflect the strength of the alliance between the two countries.
He noted that the importance of the visit was reflected in discussion of the intensification of defense ties between the Kingdom and the US, exchange of intelligence information and cooperation in the field of counterterrorism, as well as cooperation in resolving ongoing regional conflicts that threaten the common interests of the two countries.
Mattair added that the time has come for US investors to shed light on the bold and smart economic reform plans in the Kingdom that are based on the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 and associated programs, such as the National Transformation Program 2020, which will make the Kingdom one of the most important forces at regional as well as global levels.
