Saudi King Salman welcomed a proposal by Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov to organize a meeting in Saudi Arabia for the Russia - Islamic World strategic vision group in order to work on new plans.

The agreement came during a meeting between King Salman and the President of the Republic of Tatarstan, at his residence in Moscow on Friday, within the framework of the Saudi monarch's visit to Russia.

The media office of the President of Tatarstan, who is the Chairman of "Russia - Islamic world" Group, under the guidance of Russian President Vladimir Putin, announced that Minnikhanov briefed King Salman in detail about the activity of the team and the issues it works on.

The group of strategic vision “Russia-Islamic world” was created in 2006 under the leadership of the former Russian Prime Minister E. M. Primakov and the former President of Republic of Tatarstan M. Sh. Shaimiev since the Russian Federation joined the Organization of Islamic cooperation as the observer.
