Minister of Foreign Affairs Prince Faisal bin Farhan bin Abdullah met on Tuesday in London with UK Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs Yvette Cooper.
During the meeting, both sides reviewed bilateral relations and discussed the latest developments in the Middle East and their security and economic implications.
The two ministers also stressed the need to intensify efforts to steer the region toward stability and peace. They underscored the importance of ensuring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and rejecting its use as a tool of political or economic pressure, which would undermine international order and law and negatively affect global trade flows.
The meeting was attended by Saudi Ambassador to the United Kingdom Prince Abdullah bin Khalid bin Sultan, Director General of the Foreign Minister’s Office Walid Al-Samaeel, and Advisor to the Foreign Minister Mohammed Alyahya.
