Iran and Saudi Arabia agree to normalize relations and open embassies

Trilateral talks were held in Beijing for three days, at which the hosts of the meeting received representatives of Tehran and Riyadh. As a result, Iran and Saudi Arabia agreed to normalize relations and open embassies.

This is reported by the Iranian news agency Tasnim.

Decided to resume diplomatic relations and reopen their embassies within the next two months

- said in a statement.

From Tehran, the event, which lasted from March 6 to 10, was attended by Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Ali Shamkhani. The Saudis were represented by National Security Adviser Musaid Al Aiban. The parties managed to resolve all differences and reach reconciliation.

In a joint statement following the talks, the representatives of Riyadh and Tehran thanked the authorities of Iraq and Oman for mediating the negotiation process and providing venues for meetings in 2021 and 2022, as well as the Chinese leadership for organizing the recently concluded round of negotiations.

Further, the foreign ministers of the two countries are to meet in order to develop a mechanism for implementing the agreements reached and agree on the exchange of ambassadors.

The termination of contacts between Tehran and Riyadh occurred in 2016. This was preceded by the execution in Saudi Arabia of the Shiite priest Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr. This was followed by an attack by demonstrators on the Saudi embassy in Iran. In response, Riyadh announced the severance of diplomatic relations.

And then China, and where in this significant international event is Russian diplomacy and its outstanding leader - an apologist for the negotiation process?

Compared to them, Belarus is huge. Yes, and some "their godfathers" say it has its own inland sea;)

It would be a good company against the United States to get Russia-China-Iran-Saudi Arabia, the dollar would be overturned and there would be no "" world hegemon. Russia seized some of the American weapons that were supplied to Ukraine and gave them to Iran to create analogues. This is reported by CNN, citing sources in the Pentagon. In particular, Israel will really like the "analogue of the javelin".

So what? China is a great power, moreover, it plays a very prominent role in the economic life of both these states...

Get used to the idea that the world is MULTIPOLAR

[Reptiloid]

tripartite negotiations

After all sorts of American threats to everyone in a row, and to China ---- especially! for sure, the staff are angry.

[Mikhail Drabkin]

...America after the uppercut...White House spokesman John Kirby: "..the US continues to watch China as they try to gain influence and gain a foothold in other countries of the world in their own selfish interests!!!».

—-The resumption of ties between the SA and Iran, under the leadership of the PRC, is indisputable evidence of China's weight. Especially - in the region, the former undivided fiefdom of the United States. To be continued…

China - because Geneva, and indeed the entire West, can no longer be trusted from the word at all.
Russian and Chinese diplomacy stick out from behind the ears of the diplomats of both countries.

Israel is probably beside herself with rage. In the event of a conflict between Israel and Iran, Saudi Arabia will now not allow the use of its airspace by the Israeli Air Force. Now Iran and Saudi Arabia are in the same pro-Chinese camp. China does not waste time taking advantage of the involvement of the United States in the conflict in Ukraine. The Chinese Foreign Ministry also asked the United States to withdraw its troops from Syria.

Quote from Orange Bigg

The Chinese Foreign Ministry also asked the US to withdraw its troops from Syria.

Since 2015, ours, in an agreement with Assad and for all the time, have not once raised the issue of the withdrawal of American troops from Syria ...
Well done Chinese! If Assad concludes a military cooperation agreement with Xi Jinping, then the Chinese PLA can legally test the vaunted American fortress at its feet.
How else? On full international law ... At the same time they will practice ...

So yes. Goofy will start pounding against the wall, but eat pork not only under the covers.

When the United States is not at the meetings and in the negotiation process, the countries can always agree on good things.

[Silver99]

When the USA disappears as a state from the planet Earth, then the wars will stop.

[Andrey Moskvin]

Rather, the Anglo-Saxon prism of the worldview. The USA is its main conductor.

There is already a rasp for this prism - China, Russia, so that it becomes cloudy glass)). You can add the DPRK.

[leshiy076]

The answer to this question lies in the statements of Henry Ford. The US as a state has absolutely nothing to do with it. You just need to isolate someone from states and politics in general.

[Skunks]

The Saudis specifically went on a rampage and are getting out of the influence of the Anglo-Saxons .. They feel that if the United States is lowered, then the khan will come to them.
And they began to flirt with Russia, straight "friends" .. But we remember who financed the supply of weapons to the Wahhabis in the Caucasus, etc.
So there will still be a conversation .. And Iran will also present bills!
But difficulties will begin with Israel. The pressure on Russia will increase many times so that we betray Iran or something like that

[Bykov.]

Well, now the omerigos will start doing nasty things. They themselves and their allies will be pulled up.

Iran and Saudi Arabia agree to normalize relations and open embassies

. Neighbors will agree among themselves if no one interferes from outside.
Although, just because of the intervention, all sorts of different, the reason for the agreement arises even more often.

Iran and Saudi Arabia agree to normalize relations and open embassies

And this is truly a HISTORIC EVENT.

[alexey_444]

The Saudis, using the example of Iraq, understand what is happening with the states that have worked for the Americans. Iraq fought with Iran and everything was forgiven for them even the purchase of weapons from the USSR and chemical weapons against the Kurds, as soon as Iraq stopped fighting with Iran, its CIA (promising not to defend Kuwait during an attack by Iraq, just like we would not be defending the outskirts either) was put to death in 91 year. Considering the competition for shale oil producers, the Saudis are following the slaughter and will not help purchases of tens of billions of weapons in the United States. The question is the maturity of the elites of the Arabs and Persians, they will be able to see the future and not get bogged down in joint discord, it will be good for everyone and for us too, except for the USA and Israel.

[ilpine]

This is truly a breakthrough in the Middle East. This removes a number of serious problems for Russia and opens up new prospects.

[Petr_Koldunov]

When can we expect democratic protests against human rights violations in both countries?

Well, of course - with the obligatory comment of Ned Price that "we support peaceful protests and call on the authorities to refrain from violence, as we can impose sanctions in response to the disproportionate use of force"

[Kuzmitsky]

In Iran, it seems, there has already been something so "democratic". Now the West can try to shake up the Saudis.

In Allen Dulles' book The Art of Spying, he explicitly confirmed that the US had a hand in overthrowing Mossadegh. It was simply said that some Americans had contact with the organizers of the overthrow of Mossadegh and approved of their plans. The Americans did not hide this from the very beginning. It's just that this country has a culture of handling classified and proprietary information. It is only in Russia that former servicemen can write on their pages from which countries and where planes fly that can bring something unpleasant for the United States. In the US, such a character would be deprived of either a pension or a good job.

Now the relations of the manarchs of the Arabian Peninsula with Israel are better than those of Iran. Russia could have a hand in normalizing Israel's relations with Iran and Syria. Still, the Israelis, unlike the Sunnis, do not execute Shiites and Alawites only for their faith.

The question is, can our leadership somehow use this circumstance to our advantage? I highly doubt it. They have different interests and goals.

Question from Brzezinski, is this leadership ours? In the sense of whose interests it generally pursues.

[Mikhail Ivanov]

This is an important event. I would even say unique. They were openly hostile for many years ... Perhaps the world is really changing dramatically. New alliances are being formed and the interests of sane countries are united. In contrast to the Western world, a new center of economic influence is being formed in Southeast Asia, led by China. It will be joined by the Arabs, in the future, Latin America, part of the African states, the countries of the Middle East, including Turkey. There is also a place for Russia there, and not in the last roles. If the announced visit of Xi to Putin on March 21 is confirmed, then China sees Russia as the first among equals in the future world.

So far, only the opening of embassies has been agreed upon. In Yemen, the Saudis continue to kill Shiite Houthis. Israel stays out of this war.
