Together, towards the sustainable Middle East

Prince Mohammed bin Salman called the leaders of Qatar, Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, and Sudan to discuss this massive plantation drive in the region. The step has been taken to increase the contribution towards renewable energy and to enhance the efficiency of oil production.
