Khamenei advisor calls for reopening of Saudi, Iranian embassies
Iran and Saudi Arabia must reopen their embassies to facilitate a rapprochement between the two regional rivals, a top adviser to Iran's supreme leader said yesterday. Iran and Saudi Arabia severed ties in 2016 with both parties backing opposite sides in proxy wars across the region. "We are neighbours and we must coexist. The embassies should reopen to solve our problems," said Ali Akbar Velayati. Last year, Tehran and Riyadh began direct talks in an attempt to improve ties.
