RIYADH: Saudi deputy minister for protocol affairs, Khalid bin Faisal Al-Sehli, on Wednesday received the Ivory Coast’s envoy to Saudi Arabia, Coulibaly Drissa.
During their meeting in Riyadh — that followed Al-Sehli’s recent talks with the Turkish ambassador to the Kingdom, Fatih Ulusoy — they discussed diplomatic relations between the two countries and issues of mutual interest.
Earlier, on behalf of the Saudi foreign affairs minister, ambassador Al-Sehli hosted a farewell lunch in honor of Belgium’s envoy to Riyadh, Dominique Mineur.
In June, the deputy minister met with Azerbaijan’s ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Shahin Abdullayev. Al-Sehli has held various positions in Saudi embassies around the world, including Ashgabat in Turkmenistan, Ottawa in Canada, Bangkok in Thailand, and Kuwait.
