Saudi-Italian relations ‘relaunched’ by foreign minister visit to Kingdom

ROME, 12 July 2022, (TON): Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to Italy believes that the solid relationship between the two countries has been relaunched with the recent visit to Riyadh of Italian Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio.

In an interview with Italian financial daily Milano Finanza, Ambassador Faisal bin Sattam bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud said “the pair are exploring new areas of cooperation and partnership after the 12th session of the Saudi-Italian Joint Commission, co-chaired last month in Riyadh by Di Maio and Saudi Finance Minister Mohammed Al-Jadaan.”

The Saudi envoy to Italy said “2022 marks the 90th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two nations. Italy was one of the first countries to recognize the Kingdom’s status.”
