UK Prime Minister Theresa May will meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Saudi Arabia today, to discuss the war in Yemen and the diplomatic crisis with Qatar, agencies reported.
The British leader is traveling to the Middle East for the second time this year, and will be visiting Saudi Arabia and Jordan during the trip.
“We need to ensure that we’re building stable partnerships to ensure our security, and there’s no doubt in my mind that it’s in Britain’s national interest to work with Jordan and Saudi Arabia,’’ May told reporters, cited by Bloomberg.
“It’s in their security interests but also in ours. We want to help them to address regional challenges but also to put through the reforms that they have to ensure their long-term stability,” she added.
Allowing humanitarian aid through Yemen's port of Hodeida is one of the subjects expected to be discussed during May’s visit.
May's visit to Saudi Arabia is the second one by a European leader this month, after French President Emmanuel Macron traveled to Saudi Arabia earlier in November.
