Jake Sullivan, the national security adviser for the United States, met with Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi prime minister, and crown prince, Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the national security adviser for the United Arab Emirates, and Ajit Doval, the national security adviser for India, on Sunday in Riyadh.
