U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has left Saudi Arabia after a two-hour visit during which he held a series of talks on the Gulf crisis.
During the meeting, the two sides reviewed bilateral relations and opportunities to develop them, as well as developments in the Middle East and joint efforts in the fight against terrorism and its financing.
The meeting came following another held by Tillerson including the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Bahrain, in addition to Kuwait’s minister of state for cabinet affairs, Sheikh Mohammed Abdullah Al-Mubarak Al-Sabah.
Tillerson arrived in Jeddah from Doha as part of a tour he started on Monday in Kuwait to discuss the Gulf crisis.
During Tillerson's visit to Doha, the U.S. and Qatar signed a deal to combat terrorism financing, a step the four countries described late Tuesday as insufficient.
Qatar denies the accusations, saying the blockade violates international law.
