Even though he had agreed to a rapprochement agreement, Prince Faisal emphasized that this did not necessarily resolve all the differences between the Saudis and Iran. Related to that, he mentioned Iran’s nuclear program. According to Prince Faisal, Saudi still has concerns over its neighbor’s nuclear program.
“With regard to Iran’s continued development of nuclear capabilities, this is undoubtedly our concern, and we reiterate our call for the Gulf region and the Middle East to be free from weapons of mass destruction. We call on Iran to commit to its nuclear obligations and enhance its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency. We will continue to work with allies and partners to ensure this,” said Prince Faisal.
