Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud arrived in Ankara on a state visit in August 2006, holding formal talks with Turkish President Ahmet Necdet Sezer.
The two leaders concluded their meeting by signing six bilateral agreements covering a range of areas: foreign ministry political consultations, state archives cooperation, mutual investment protection, double-taxation prevention, health ministry collaboration, and transportation.
King Abdullah's schedule in Ankara included a separate meeting with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, as well as a formal banquet hosted by President Sezer in the king's honor.
