Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdelaziz will make an official visit to Egypt, following a private visit to France that begins Thursday, the Saudi royal palace said on Wednesday.
In a statement to the Saudi press agency (SPA), the royal court said the prince would start his official visit to Egypt on July 2 at the invitation of President Hosni Mubarak.
The agency did not say if Crown Prince Abdullah, who has been on a visit to Morocco, was to meet any French officials during his private trip there.
Prince Abdullah has increasingly been running the day-to-day affairs of the oil-rich kingdom since his brother, King Fahd, suffered a stroke in 1995 – Albawaba.com
