Prime Minister Imran Khan will visit Saudi Arabia either before Eid or immediately after it, Saudi Arabia's Embassy in Pakistan said on Monday.

During his visit, PM Imran Khan will have a meeting with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Last month, Prime Minister Imran Khan had a telephonic conversation with Saudi Arabia's crown prince, who had invited the prime minister to visit the kingdom. PM Imran had accepted his offer.

The phone call was made hours after the premier had penned a letter to MBS, lauding the launch of the "Saudi Green Initiative" and "Green Middle East" initiative.

The PM's Office, in a series of tweets, said the premier and the crown prince agreed to work together to further augment bilateral ties in all spheres.
