MOSCOW - Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Abdullah met Russia's president Tuesday on the first visit to post-Soviet Russia by a Saudi leader, aimed at coordinating oil exports and soothing Russian concerns about alleged funding of Chechen rebels by Saudi charities.

Saudi Arabia and Russia are the world's first and second largest oil exporters, respectively, and Moscow is keen to solidify its ties with the kingdom. snip

Hosting Abdullah - the de facto Saudi leader - at the Kremlin, President Vladimir Putin hailed Saudi Arabia as "one of the most important Muslim nations."

"We have always considered the Muslim world, the Arab world, as one of our most important partners," Putin added.
