Iran is prepared to hold talks with its regional rival Saudi Arabia, with or without the help of a mediator, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said on Saturday, before a visit by Prime Minister Imran Khan.<\/p>\n
When asked about reports that Prime Minister Imran, who would arrive in Iran over the weekend, could try to mediate between Tehran and Riyadh, Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said: "I am not aware of no mediation, "according to the state broadcaster. IRIB<\/em>.<\/p>\n "Iran has announced that, with or without a mediator, it is always ready to hold talks with its neighbors, including Saudi Arabia, to get rid of any misunderstanding," Mousavi added.<\/p>\n Iran's Foreign Minister said this week that his country would be willing to discuss regional issues with Saudi Arabia, but that Riyadh had to stop "killing people."<\/p>\n Saudi Arabia, which is locked in several wars of power in the region with Iran, blamed Tehran for the attacks on Saudi oil plants on September 14, a charge that Iran denies. The kingdom has said it prefers a political solution to a military one.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/pre>\n<\/pre>\n Source: https:\/\/www.dawn.com\/news\/1510454\/iran-says-ready-for-talks-with-saudi-with-or-without-mediation<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Iran is prepared to hold talks with its regional rival Saudi Arabia, with or without the help of a mediator, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said on Saturday, before a visit by Prime Minister Imran Khan.
