Lebanon's prime minister has met with Saudi Arabia's powerful crown prince during his first trip to the kingdom since relations strained following Saad Hariri's brief resignation late last year.
Hariri posted a selfie with Mohammed bin Salman and the kingdom's ambassador to the United States following their meeting in Riyadh late yesterday at the end of a three-day visit.
The three appeared in informal clothes and flashed wide smiles, apparently signalling relations have been normalised following last year bizarre sequence of events around Hariri's resignation.
Hariri's resignation, announced while he was in Riyadh, was widely seen as orchestrated by his Saudi backers who complain that the Lebanese government is controlled by the powerful Iran-backed Hezbollah group.
Hariri reversed his resignation upon return to Lebanon following international mediation.
