The leader from Saudi Arabia, Prince Mohammad Bin Salman, often called MBS, is visiting Pakistan for a super-short trip, then heading to India.

How Short is the Visit?

Short! About 4 to 6 hours on September 10th.

Why is He Coming?

Meeting with Powerful People: Even though Pakistan has a temporary leader, Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar, MBS is keen to meet the army chief, General Asim Munir. He is the one pulling the strings right now.
Business Talks: Some people think MBS is visiting because he might want to invest in Pakistan. A source even said Pakistan is like a shop having a sale, and Saudi Arabia might be interested in buying.
Thanks: Pakistan recently gave Saudi Arabia a big business deal about the Gwadar Refinery project. MBS might be visiting to say “thanks” for that.
Avoiding Trouble: There is a big group called the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). MBS should make sure they are happy by visiting Pakistan now.

What Will They Talk About?

The main topics are friendship between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, defense matters, and possible military teamwork.

Hasn’t This Been Planned Before?

Yes! MBS wanted to come to Pakistan last year, but that did not happen.

In Simple Terms

A big leader from Saudi Arabia is visiting Pakistan for a few hours. People think he is coming for business talks and to say thanks for a deal. This visit is essential for both countries.
