Prince Faisal had landed in the Syrian capital earlier, alongside an economic delegation on a visit to discuss ways to support Syria's war-ravaged economy, authorities said.
“We affirm that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will remain at the vanguard of countries standing by Syria in its path towards reconstruction and economic recovery,“ Prince Faisal said in a joint press conference with his Syrian counterpart.
He said Saudi economic delegations would visit Damascus soon, noting that “work is underway to discuss investment support and economic and trade cooperation” between the two countries.
The two countries “have entered a strong stage of joint investment and economic cooperation”, he said.
Prince Faisal met Syrian interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa, and visited Damascus's famous Umayyad Mosque alongside Shaibani.
In February, Sharaa visited Saudi Arabia on his first trip abroad as president.
Damascus is hoping that the lifting of sanctions, particularly by the United States, will enable support from the international community.
A recent United Nations Development Programme report estimated Syria’s “lost GDP” during the 2011-2024 war to be around $800 billion.
Prince Faisal first visited Syria's new authorities in January.
