 [Al Arabiya Latest] United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived in Riyadh on Monday for talks with Saudi leaders on Washington's drive for tough new sanctions against Iran over its controversial nuclear program.She was due to meet Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal before heading to a desert camp outside the capital for talks with King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz. In neighbouring Qatar earlier, Clinton warned that Iran was heading towards a "military dictatorship" dominated by the elite Revolutionary Guard that posed a threat to the whole world. The U.S. chief diplomat told students in Qatar that the United States was not seeking to use military action against Iran to curb its nuclear ambitions but rather seeking to use international pressure through the U.N.
