The historic relations between the two countries go back to 1926 when the then Soviet Union became the first nation to recognize King Abdul Aziz as the Sultan of Najd and Hijaz, and later as the King of Saudi Arabia, and henceforth the relations witnessed remarkable growth. Thursday?s tête-à-tête between the Saudi crown prince and Russian president was focused mainly on further bolstering bilateral relations, and strengthening cooperation, particularly in the field of peaceful use of nuclear energy, military and technical cooperation, housing, oil and gas sector and investment opportunities.
