Russia and the CIS (bbabo.net) - Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will officially visit Turkey on June 22, a Turkish official said on Friday. The detailed program of this visit will be announced "at the end of the week," Mayadin's source said.

The Turkish official indicated that several agreements are expected to be signed during this visit, which the crown prince will initiate, according to some reports, from Ankara.

This will be the first visit by a Saudi crown prince to Istanbul since the assassination of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi at his country's consulate in Istanbul in 2018, causing chills and tensions between the two countries.

Earlier, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited Saudi Arabia at the end of April this year and met with the Crown Prince before leaving for Mecca.

Recall that the case of the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi is still relevant after 5 years, so the building of the Embassy of the Kingdom in Washington officially named the street in honor of the murdered journalist two days ago, while the upcoming visit of US President Joe Biden to Saudi Arabia was announced.
