Saudi King Names Third Foreign Minister in Four Years
(Bloomberg) –Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz has named Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud as his third foreign minister since taking the throne in 2015.
In a series of royal decrees late Wednesday and published by the official news agency, the king also named Saleh Al-Jasser transportation minister.
Prince Faisal Al Saud, 45, who recently was serving as the kingdom’s ambassador to Germany, used to work in the private sector and defense-related businesses and was not particularly known outside the Saudi elite circle. He also served as an adviser at the Saudi Arabian embassy in Washington.
