DUBAI: Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman met on Wednesday US Climate envoy John Kerry.
The meeting comes after Kerry met with Saudi Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Adel Al-Jubeir met on Tuesday.
Kerry was on his first visit to the Kingdom after assuming the position of US Special Presidential Envoy for Climate.
Since President Joe Biden was sworn in on Jan. 20, he has made several moves to emphasize the importance of mitigating global warming and reinstating America’s role as a leader in that battle. This included appointing former Secretary of State Kerry to be the country’s first Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, making him the administration’s global face on the issue.
