New Delhi, Feb 10 (PTI) A wide range of issues including global terror will come up for discussion when Defence Minister A K Antony undertakes a two-day visit to Saudi Arabia from Monday. During the visit the Minister would discuss issues pertaining to bilateral relations with the two nations including global terror and anti-piracy efforts by Indian Navy in the Gulf of Aden, Defence Ministry officials said here today. Antony would be going to Saudi Arabia two years after Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to that country during which he signed 10 important agreements, including a defence pact. The two countries have already signed a counter terrorism cooperation agreement and during Antony's visit, both sides are likely to discuss issues related to financing of Pakistan-based terrorist groups. During the visit, India is also expected to raise the issue of anti-piracy efforts in the Gulf of Aden and ways to of deal with the threat.
