(MENAFN)Tehran is ready to reinstate diplomatic ties with Saudi Arabia if Riyadh changes behavior, according to two Iranian diplomats.
The spokesman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry, Saeed Khatibzadeh, has called on Saudi Arabia to modify its behavior hence Iran restore its relations with it. He further said that, if the Saudis change their regional policies the region would witness better days.
“What happened in Yemen is really bitter. Besieging a nation and imposing a famine on it is really a historic catastrophe. Yemen is Saudi Arabia’s immediate neighbor. And what happened to Qatar was not a good thing. The sooner each of these is resolved, the better for the region. The day when Saudi Arabia concludes that it can speak directly to us and the region and embrace the region and stop buying a security from outside the region, there will be better days for the region,” Khatibzadeh declared at a weekly press meeting on Monday.
