Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, held talks on Wednesday with British Prime Minister Theresa May in London. The two officials met at 10 Downing Street. Media reports on Wednesday said earlier that the Saudi delegation’s talks with May and senior ministers are aimed at launching a UK-Saudi “Strategic Partnership Council” - an initiative to encourage Saudi Arabia’s economic reforms and foster cooperation on issues such as education and culture, as well as defense and security. Earlier, Prince Mohammed had held talks with Queen Elizabeth II. The Crown Prince had arrived in Britain on a three-day visit on Tuesday.
