Brexit won't have major impact on Saudi-UK ties: Saudi FM

England's choice to leave the European Union won't influence relations with Saudi Arabia, the world's top oil exporter, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said on Tuesday.

"We don't trust that the way out of Britain from the EU will majorly affect our association with Great Britain," al-Jubeir told columnists at a news gathering in Paris.

"Thus this is something that we take after. We will keep on having extremely solid ties with Great Britain in all regions as we will with whatever is left of the European nations," he included at a joint news gathering with French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault.
