Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has invited Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to visit Ankara, expressing his hope to restore relations between the two countries to what they once were.

President Erdogan visited the kingdom last month on an official visit to King Salman and his heir apparent, during which he met with Prince Muhammad bin Salman, during which they discussed areas of cooperation between the two countries, led by rapid support for the rescue of the crashing Turkish lira.

Meanwhile, Riyadh welcomed the restoration of relations with Turkey and sought to improve them by ending the Gulf boycott of Turkish goods, which had a significant impact on the Turkish economy and Turkish investors.
