Iran: Saudi rejection of Tehran ties show kingdom’s destructive policies

Iran says the Saudi deputy crown prince’s remarks against the Islamic Republic are proof that the kingdom follows “confrontational and destructive policies” in the region and towards Tehran.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi was reacting on Wednesday to comments made by Mohammed bin Salman, who rejected the possibility of normalization of ties with Iran.

“Over the past years, Iran has shown in words and deeds that it endeavors towards utilizing common ground to reach understanding and cooperate with all regional countries,” Qassemi said.
He added that unity in the Islamic world towards resolving the crises in the region is of utmost importance to Iran.
