Mohammed bin Salman Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

It has been a high-profile, globally significant week for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman packed with diplomatic headlines and symbolic gestures that will stand out in his biography for years to come. Today, according to Arab News, the Crown Prince hosts Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Riyadh, marking yet another bilateral engagement in a growing partnership. Their talks aim to deepen cooperation in trade, economic investment, and regional security. This comes as the region copes with mounting volatility—Israel’s recent military campaign has expanded, with escalations including a striking air raid on Qatar and a 12-day war with Iran. The Crown Prince’s direct involvement highlights Saudi Arabia’s ongoing centrality to the Islamic world’s diplomacy and crisis response.

Just this week in Doha, Mohammed bin Salman met with a formidable array of regional leaders at the emergency Arab-Islamic Summit. He sat down with Jordan’s King Abdullah II, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, Syrian President Ahmad Al-Sharaa, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, and Pakistan’s Sharif. According to the Saudi Press Agency, these face-to-face conversations reflected a united front against recent aggressions, particularly showing support for Qatar in the wake of an Israeli strike that rattled regional nerves. The Crown Prince also took the lead at the Gulf Cooperation Council’s extraordinary session and subsequently sent a personal message of gratitude to Emir Tamim of Qatar for hosting these consequential meetings—an important gesture in Gulf unity.

Meanwhile, Riyadh has become a veritable parade of high-level visits. On Tuesday, Mohammed bin Salman welcomed Ali Larijani, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, for in-depth talks about regional security and economic cooperation. WANA News and SPA described them as part of the new momentum to repair and strengthen Riyadh–Tehran ties, including frank discussions on both security and business potential. Multiple senior Iranian officials had engaged with the Crown Prince both in Doha and Riyadh, a development signaling a biographical turning point for Saudi foreign policy.

Back at home, King Salman ordered that a major road in Madinah be renamed in his son’s honor. As reported by Asharq Al-Awsat and Arab News, the new Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Road will connect the Prophet’s Mosque directly to Madinah International Airport, serving as a permanent monument to his ongoing development initiatives.

There’s been no viral social media controversy or notable informal appearances that have cut through the news cycle in the past 24 hours. Instead, the past few days for Mohammed bin Salman have been dominated by hard statecraft—diplomatic summits, strategic dialogue with rivals, and concrete recognition of his enduring legacy in Saudi Arabia’s infrastructure.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
