We will be making efforts in order to start a new era of enhanced relations between our two countries in all respects including politics, military, economy and culture," the Saudi Press Agency quoted Erdogan as saying in its report.

"It is in our joint interest to boost our cooperation with Saudi Arabia in such areas as healthcare, energy, food security, agricultural technologies, defence industry and finance. It seems that we have significant potential particularly in renewable and green energy," the President added.
