Syria's transitional President Abu Mohammed al-Julani met Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Riyadh on Sunday in his first foreign trip as Syrian leader, Saudi state news agency SPA reported.
Live TV footage showed al-Julani shaking hands with the crown prince in the Saudi capital before sitting down for talks.
The Saudi crown prince is the second Gulf leader to meet al-Julani since the latter was declared president for a transitional phase last week.
First head of state to visit Syrian capital
Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani met Sharaa in Damascus on Thursday, becoming the first head of state to visit the Syrian capital since Bashar al-Assad was ousted in December.
Al-Julani, an Islamist who was once an affiliate of al Qaeda, has been trying to gain support from Arab and Western leaders since Assad was toppled.
Al-Julani was accompanied on his visit by Syria's foreign minister, Asaad Hassan al-Shibani.
