The importance of strategic partnership for regional stability
At the regional and international levels, Saudi-Omani relations are of paramount importance in promoting security and stability in the region. The two countries share similar views on numerous political and security issues, and they work together within the framework of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to strengthen joint Gulf action and address regional challenges with wisdom and balance. The continued exchange of messages and visits between the two leaderships underscores their mutual commitment to coordinating positions and unifying visions on critical issues affecting the region and the world.
