Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman held a rare meeting with American evangelical istians as the conservative kingdom seeks to open up more to the world and repair an image of religious intolerance.
The delegation was led on Thursday by communications strategist Joel Rosenberg and included former US congresswoman Michele Bachmann, according to an emailed statement from the group, as well as heads of American evangelical organisations, some with ties to Israel.
"It was a historic moment for the Saudi crown prince to openly welcome evangelical istian leaders to the palace. We were encouraged by the candour of the two-hour conversation with him today," the statement said.
