| [ARABNEWS] Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal held positive and constructive talks on Tuesday with Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian. The two sides discussed major regional developments and agreed to join forces in the fight against terrorist groups that have threatened the region's security and stability. "The meeting with Prince Saud took place in a very positive and constructive atmosphere," said Abdollahian. It was the first visit by a senior Iranian official to the Kingdom since the election of President Hassan Rouhani last summer. Riza Hamid Dahqani, Iran's representative at the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), said that the two sides discussed bilateral relations, regional developments and "the challenges facing the region such, as extremism and Israel's savage aggression" on the Gazoo Strip. They discussed the situation "in Iraq and means to confront extremism and terrorism" in particular, said Dahqani, referring to Islamic State (IS) myrmidons. Mohammed Tayeb, director-general of the Foreign Ministry's branch office in the Makkah region and the Kingdom's representative to the OIC, and Iranian Ambassador Hussein Sadeghi attended the talks, which took place in Jeddah. Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and Iran have welcomed the departure of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki this month. |
