(MENAFN) On Wednesday, Saudi Arabia's King Salman bin Abdulaziz encountered with Lebanese Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri in Riyadh to deliberate bilateral relations and local advances, according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).
On Wednesday, Hariri arrived in Riyadh to join the second day of a high-profile investment conference that started in the Saudi capital one day earlier.
Hours before leaving Beirut, Hariri acclaimed the procedures taken by Saudi Arabia regarding the new killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who, Saudi officials admitted last week, had been murdered inside the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul on October 2.
Planned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, the three-day conference now taking place in Riyadh is aimed at enticing investment to the oil-rich kingdom, which has long wanted to diversify its economy away from petroleum.
