Fuad Hussein Visits Riyadh to Boost Ties Between Iraq and Saudi Arabia

Baghdad – Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Fuad Hussein arrived in the Saudi capital. His visit reflects Iraq’s growing commitment to strengthening bilateral relations with its regional partners.

Upon arrival, Hussein was warmly welcomed by Deputy Foreign Minister Walid bin Abdul Karim Al-Khuraiji.
