Saudi Arabia’s and Russia’s state-run investment finds last month sealed a deal which will see the two oil-rich states invest as much as $10bn in joint projects of an as yet unspecified nature. The deal between Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) and the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) was sealed in mid-June when top Saudi officials visited Russia. The countries’ governments also agreed to cooperate on the development of their nuclear energy programs.
