July OIC news wrap: Turkey, GCC countries ink deals; Saudi intensifies net-zero quest; and more

Editor's note: The Turkish President's recent trip to the GCC to shore up investment was a fruitful one. His visit marked the signing of 16 cooperation agreements between his country and Saudi Arabia, and another $50 billion in deals with the UAE. This also builds on the comprehensive economic partnership agreement ratified by the UAE and Turkey earlier this year, to push bilateral non-oil trade to beyond $40bn in the next five years.
