RIYADH: National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq met Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and thanked Riyadh for continued support to Pakistan during “difficult times”, according to a statement issued by the NA Secretariat on Sunday.
The Saudi crown prince hosted the luncheon in honour of Muslim leaders visiting Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj, which was also attended by NA Speaker Sadiq and Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori.
The crown prince expressed his commitment to addressing the challenges being faced by the Muslim world. During his interaction with the crown prince, Sadiq said that Saudi Arabia has always stood by Pakistan during difficult times.
