Iran and Saudi Arabia have agreed to restore relations and reopen embassies within two months after talks in the China, Iranian and Saudi state media announced on March 10.
The talks took place in Beijing from March 6 to 10 between the Secretary of the Iranian Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani and the Saudi Minister of State, Musaed bin Muhammad al-Aiban.
Nour News, which is linked to Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, shared photos and a video it described as being taken in China. The video shows Shamkhani with al-Abian and a Chinese official that state TV named as Wang Yi.
Iranian state television said that the foreign ministers of the two countries will soon meet to prepare for the exchange of ambassadors.
The Saudi Press Agency confirmed the agreement when it also published the joint statement from Saudi Arabia and Iran, which said that the two countries had agreed to “respect state sovereignty and not interfere in each other’s internal affairs.”
“The Saudi and Iranian sides expressed their appreciation and gratitude to the Republic of Iraq and the Sultanate of Oman for hosting rounds of dialogue that took place between both sides during the years 2021-2022. The two sides also expressed their appreciation and gratitude to the leadership and government of the People’s Republic of China for hosting and sponsoring the talks, and the efforts it placed towards its success,” the statement reads.
The statement also said that Tehran and Riyadh had agreed to activate a security cooperation agreement that was signed in 2001.
Tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia reached its peak after the outbreak of the war in Syria and the 2015 Houthi takeover in Yemen. Saudi Arabia broke off ties with Iran in 2016 after protesters stormed Saudi diplomatic posts in Tehran. Riyadh had executed a prominent Shia cleric days earlier.
The Iranian-Saudi reconciliation could have a major impact on the situation in the Middle East. The cooperation between the two regional players could help end the wars in Syria and Yemen, and find a solution for Lebanon’s deep economic-political crisis.
The reconciliation can be also seen as a victory for Chinese diplomacy in the face of the United States efforts to escalate in the Middle East.

Your arse needs to restore relations with some toilet paper. You are dribbling.
Yuri gaglagarin wrote that and not me.
Roger Please note Toilet paper are expensive why don’t you suggest environmentally friendly water as it will clean it completely
And poof, just like that, the end of the dollar and US dominance. No more ME countries bent on keeping america happy. They are now looking after their own interests and thinking of the future. The ‘country’ of isreali will be america’s only friend in the region. That’s no surprise as it’s always been a crusaders outpost and supply depot.
Maybe the Saudi Arabian admin have finally realised that they will never have an empire by using brute force on its neighbours? That’s a model used by the US and the isreali apartheid regime which was used by the British empire before either of these regimes existed.
The USadmins only policy seems to be to destroy everything. Can one expect anything else from these dumbed down half breeds in congress who’s ancestors stole the British empire and all its money by having its jewish community bribe a prime minister to ferment a war with Germany?
The israelis are no friends of the US. Notice how there is no question of any US base or military presence in israel, and how many billions the yanks give to israel every year? The Yanks just are israel’s useful idiots………………
Yes. You are partly right. That friendship has its limitations.
Jennings globe of the world is the skull of Putin unshawed.
A usual sciencefiction added lies.
USA is friend to Egypt as well as Jordan. They have bases in Bahrein too.
Peter Jennings zionist entity was Planted in Middle East by Christian west to CONTINUE THEIR CRUSADE ON MUSLIM NATION BY DESIGN IT HAS TO BE ACT AS DESTABILIZER OF MUSLIM NATIONS AND HAS MOVING GOAL POST SO THE CHRISTIAN WEST CAN NOT ONLY LOOT MUSLIM NATIONS BUT ALSO RETARD IT’S SOCIO ECONOMIC PROSPERITY AND DEVELOPMENT Whilst Muslim nations were demonized and systematically destroyed China Russia and India were quietly building their economies and diplomatic capacities so far Christian west has been very very successful but now there three new goons called China Russia and India who pose a challenge to this and they want a part of the loot All three China Russia and India do not have DEEP SEATED FOUNDATIONS TO RESIST WESTERN DICTATES YOU CAN SEE HOW THEY SUFFER FROM INFERIORITY COMPLEX AND ADOPT WESTERN VALUES WITHOUT MUCH RESISTANCE WHAT YOU ARE SEEING IN TEMPORARY BLIP
It’s a step in the right direction. World needs no more wars or suffering.
Ah, here comes the US.
Its allowed to hope. I see a symbolic visit and trade. They both has oil.
Have you guys notice something that is happening with China? As if they are really start acting like the world leader?
They had a peace plan for Ukraine which Russia and most of the West were okay with it and now this. These are big moves that China is leading. Now what the US doing? Oh, Biden is sleeping again.
Even the Zionist clown puppet Trump said something about a peace plan. I tell you what, the US 99% going to start a war with China and in the Middle East soon.
They are working hard to create a new maïdan in Georgia. The foreigners law should have been voted but the cucked gvt of Georgia finally refused it. It proves the foreign influences rules already the country. Russia should intervene politically as soon as possible or the NED, the open society and other world gvt NGOs will start a new “coloured revolution” soon.
Georgia is ready for it and they proven just that to their masters in the US/Israel. BTW China did stop those “NGOs” long time ago and yeah every country should do the same.
You know who really hates China the most? It is that satanic looking pig Soros. Soros also didn’t like Trump as well but that is a different story.
Also, I’m sure you know Brian Berletic (YT: The New Atlas/LD).
If You cant love the one You love, love the ones You wish.
Okay jens… whatever that means.
As usual:The Russians should have done this and that. SHOULD.
Of course there are non Georgian with high influence in Georgia. Thats normal for the whole western economics and affiliated I live in.
AND we are doing very well.We wish the same for Georgia. Fx they easy can raise their GDP as well as live longer. Russia offers none of that. Its more like psycopatic dominance by guns and threats.
You not even see Georgia is their own country and Rustica is foreign too.
It was taken back by Russian Bolsjevic force from themselves in 1917. Its very semilar to the Russian bad behavior in the rest of Caucasus.
That was no peace plan at all. The West has told none of Your dreams. Putin told You?
I talked about the two peace plans that was led by China, the Iran-KSA peace plan (normalization for better word) and they put a peace plan for Ukraine-Russia war.
Which one are you talking about, I’m guessing the Ukraine-Russia one. I didn’t say they agree to that peace plan mate. I said the Chinese peace plan was good, Russia and some Western countries were okay with it. Pls don’t try to change what I said.
Now the US empire is accelerating its decline we can only hope there are some adults in the room left, so this decline doesn’t result in annihilation of humanity
One thing American hate the most is being called losers, they can’t take it like a real man. I wouldn’t say the US let China take their place without a war that is for sure, I mean they are openly declaring war against China. Taiwan is part of China and the US agree with that so them arming and fighting Chinese in Taiwan is a declaration of war.
The US can stay in power if they act like humans, stop the wars and work with everyone. But that is never going to happen.
I hope many more bad days for the zionist extremists and the neocons are up.
We will always be happy not being You.
Now the Chinese president Xi will be nominated by the west for a Nobel Peace Prize. But I think he will reject it, not to be in the same company with the massive civilian drone-killer Obama.
it is about time these two nations get along, it is win win situation for both & lose for west.
They have not been since shia was invented.
Wonderful! The Yanks will be throwing a hissy fit, but their opinion really doesn’t count for anything anymore. Discredited, de-dollarised, hated, despised and laughed at all over the world. So much for US exceptionalism……………
You must be dead or something.
Konečne sa dohodli aspoň na niečom. Teraz už iba dávať pozor na to aby sa nič nepokazilo. Ako vidno BRICS je ozaj nádejou na spravodlivejší svetový poriadok. Čína teraz ako garant týchto rozhovorov by mala zapracovať na tom aby sa obe tieto krajiny začali zbližovať. A to na základe vzájomného obchodovania a tým budovaním dôvery.
At least You could write what language it is.
This was expected, if Saudi Arabia and Iran wants to join Brics+ and SCO then they need to settle their differences and restore relations first. That is why it’s happening and it’s a good thing and will hopefully have great impact on peace and stability of the region but i also think it will help the peace in other countries like Yemen.
