Saudi Ambassador to the US Prince Khaled bin Salman met with Saudi fighter pilots at the Nellis Air Force Base in southern Nevada Saturday to convey his thanks for their commitment to defending Saudi Arabia.
In a briefing with US Air Force officials, the Saudi envoy reaffirmed the strong defense ties between Saudi Arabia and the US.
The “Red and Green Flag 2017 joint military exercises strengthen our ability to work together against terrorist groups, including ISIS,” the envoy said through the Saudi Emabssy's official Twitter account, using a Western acronym for the Daesh terror group.
