According to Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post report on Monday, Saudi Minister of Investment Khalid Al-Falih and Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud and several senior Saudi officials all expressed the hope of further strengthening relations with China at the meeting.

Al-Falih also said he wished to visit China as soon as possible.

Saudi Energy Minister Abdulaziz bin Salman Al Saud said that Saudi Arabia is advancing its “Vision 2030,” and China is implementing the Belt and Road Initiative. Hence there are synergies between the two countries.

Speaking at the event, the energy minister made it clear that Saudi Arabia wants cooperation rather than competition with China when talking about the suspicion of the West towards the growing relationship between Saudi Arabia and China.
