Proposed Meeting Between Tehran, Riyadh's Foreign Ministers


(MENAFN) Tehran has proposed three locations for a meeting between Tehran and Riyadh's foreign ministers following a deal to re-establish diplomatic relations.

According to Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, the locations were not disclosed, but the agreement was the result of years of talks brokered in Baghdad and China, reiterated by Mr Amirabdollahian on Sunday.

Five rounds of negotiations were held in Baghdad, confirmed in 2021 by Iraq's then-president Barham Salih.

Saudi Arabia has now said it wants to invest “quickly” in Iran. Iran has also said it hopes to forge closer ties with other countries, including Bahrain, as part of a “balanced foreign policy” following the deal.
