Mauritanian Foreign Minister Ould Cheikh Ahmed, reassuring his Saudi counterpart Adil al-Jubeir, said the road between the airport and Nouakchott was safe and expected al-Jubeir feared that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman would be targeted.
The voice of Sheikh Ahmed's son appeared in the recording. He told al-Jubeir during his reception at the airport that the road was safe and the cars would be launched quickly, before Ben Salman arrived at the airport today.
Activists on Facebook questioned whether the Mauritanian foreign minister had noticed a fear and was responding to the Saudi minister, prompting him to reassure him.
Bin Salman arrived in Nouakchott today and held talks with Mauritanian President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz at the airport for a few hours visit.
Before the arrival of the Saudi Crown Prince, the National Forum for Democracy and Unity, the largest opposition coalition in Mauritania, declared in a statement that he rejected the visit, which "comes in circumstances that dictate to all those who adhere to the just cause of the Palestinian people and all those who fight for human rights, freedom of the press and freedom of expression, Welcome. "
The student initiative against the Zionist infiltration and defend the just cases in Mauritania organized the first Friday in a stand at the Grand Mosque Square - known as the Saudi Mosque - in Nouakchott, and chanted slogans against the visit of the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.
