Saudi Arabian billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal pledged support on Thursday for Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's programme of reforms.
"I was honoured to meet with my brother HRH the Crown Prince and to discuss economic matters and the private sector's future & role in #Vision2030 success," he tweeted with a photograph of the royal cousins embracing in front of a desk.
It is the first publicly disclosed meeting between the two men since the anti-corruption crackdown was launched in November.
"I shall be one of the biggest supporters of the Vision through @Kingdom_KHC & all its affiliates," Prince Alwaleed added, referring to his international investment company.
