In a phone call between the Iranian foreign minister and the Saudi foreign minister, regional and international developments were reviewed. The two ministers stressed the importance of maintaining consultations, preserving diplomatic channels, and strengthening joint cooperation to support regional stability.
The meeting agreed to advance the negotiation process toward positive and lasting results. The phone diplomacy drew attention as part of the diplomatic momentum that has accelerated following the Bürgenstock summit held in Switzerland.
The Bürgenstock summit reached agreements on the Lebanon dispute resolution mechanism, the Hormuz contact point, various technical working groups, and US sanctions waivers on Iranian oil sales. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman welcomed the Iran-US agreement in a phone call with the Pakistani prime minister, noting its importance for regional security.
Wednesday's phone call shows continued engagement between Tehran and Riyadh, which restored diplomatic relations in 2023 and has maintained regular consultations throughout the conflict.
