Rawalpindi: Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa said on Monday that Saudi Arabia has a unique place in the Islamic world.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the army chief said during a meeting with Major General Talal Abdullah Al-Otaibi, the military adviser to Saudi Arabia’s minister of defence at GHQ.

During the meeting, matters of mutual interest, regional security, the current situation in Afghanistan and bilateral defence relations between the two countries were discussed, the ISPR said.
