RIYADH: The British side in the Saudi British Business Council underscored the importance of the commercial and investment relations between the Kingdom of ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ and the United Kingdom, noting that Britain’s exit from the European Union’s gate would not leave a negative impact on the economic relations between the two countries.

In a press release following the meeting, the council said the Kingdom of ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ is Britain’s most important market in the Middle East. The statement said Britain’s exports amounted to €5.5 billion in 2015 while Saudi investments in Britain were estimated at €62 billion.
