"The time has come for large collaborative projects. And we invite you to participate in projects in the energy, petrochemical and real estate markets in Poland," President Komorowski told delegates at a Polish-Saudi Business Forum in Riyadh.
The Polish president attended the forum after talks with Saudi Crown Prince Salman bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud, who is also the country's defence minister, "where we discussed a whole range of issues related to political cooperation between Poland and Saudi Arabia" Komorowski told reporters.
The two politicians also signed a "far reaching" bi-lateral agreement on defence industry cooperation, President Komorowski said, and later went to to have meetings with Polish ex-pats working in Saudi Arabia.
