The ambassador handed over his post to Princess Haifa Al Mogrin, who becomes the first woman to head the Saudi Arabian Embassy in Madrid. Haifa Al Mogrin submitted the Copies of her Letters of Credence to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in early March and is awaiting the delivery of her Credentials to the King.
