(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir has held talks in Oman on the conflicts in Syria and Yemen where Riyadh has taken sides.
Jubeir and his Omani counterpart Yussef bin Alawi reviewed "the situation in Syria and Yemen and means of strengthening cooperation" among the six Arab states in the Gulf, the Saudi foreign minister said late Thursday after their meeting in Muscat.
He told Oman's ONA news agency that "the view is one" between Saudi Arabia and Oman on "all the matters discussed today".
Oman is seeking through "calm diplomacy... rapprochement among all parties to achieve long-lasting political solutions", Alawi, who met Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in Damascus last month, told ONA.
He said Riyadh and Muscat had "shared goals" on regional conflicts and "agreed to look forward and break from the past concerning regional issues".
His visit to Damascus had been "necessary", Alawi said, adding that the meeting with Jubeir had been scheduled before his talks with Assad.
