Turkey attaches special importance to the protection of security and stability of Saudi Arabia, which has an influential position and role in the region and international sphere.

In this context, we condemn the terrorist attacks perpetrated recently in Saudi Arabia and on this occasion, we would like to emphasize once again the importance of international solidarity in the fight against terrorism. We affirm that in combating terrorism Turkey will resolutely continue to work in solidarity and cooperation with Saudi Arabia.
