MOSCOW, June 29 (MENA) - Russian President Vladimir Putin told Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman on Saturday that Russia supports Saudi Arabia's presidency of the G20 nations in 2020, Euro News reported.

The meeting was held on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Osaka.

Putin said he was happy to discuss cooperation between the two countries in the energy market.

Speaking days before a meeting of OPEC members and non-OPEC states in early July, Putin said he was grateful for an invitation from King Salman to visit Saudi Arabia in the autumn.
