KABUL (Pajhwok): Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister Faisal Bin Farhan has arrived in Tehran seven years after his country broke ties with Iran.
Iran and Saudi Arabia agreed in March, in a deal brokered by China, to end a diplomatic rift and re-establish relations following years of hostility that had endangered regional stability including in Yemen, Syria and Lebanon.
The kingdom broke ties with Iran in 2016 after protesters invaded Saudi diplomatic posts there. Saudi Arabia had executed a prominent Shiite cleric with 46 others days earlier, triggering the demonstrations.
Prince Faisal is due to meet with Iranian President . . .
