Saudi

Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman on Thursday offered his full support

for Iraq's continued security in a phone call to Prime Minister Adil Abd al-Mahdi.

"His Highness...

expressed...full support of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for Iraq and its

support for its permanent security and prosperity," a statement from Abd al-Mahdi's

office said.

The Iraqi premier

welcomed the "development of relations", the statement said.

In October 2017, two

months before Iraq declared victory over ISIS, the countries established the

Iraqi-Saudi Joint Coordination Council, to help rebuild devastated areas

retaken from the Islamist militants in Iraq.
