Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal, accompanied by an official Saudi delegation that included Interior Minister Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, visited the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on May 20. The visit resulted in a declaration to establish a joint high committee for the two countries to manage their foreign policies and confront the challenges facing the region, according to a report by the Emirati WAM news agency.
London-based Al-Arab newspaper reported that the presence of the Saudi interior minister during the visit sent a message that there are no internal Saudi differences in Saudi Arabia’s position toward Qatar, as many Qataris claim.
