Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will visit Japan from May 20 to 23 and will meet Emperor Naruhito and Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, Tokyo said Friday.
Saudi Arabia is a major oil supplier to Japan, and its sovereign wealth fund owns a stake in gaming giant Nintendo as part of a major push into the sector.
The visit to Japan by Saudi Arabia's de-facto leader, known by his initials MBS, will be his first since 2019.
