Iran–Saudi Arabia relations

Wikipedia Overview

Bilateral relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia have experienced periods of tension as well as phases of diplomatic engagement and normalization. The tensions have been attributed to a range of geopolitical issues, including regional influence, oil production policies, and differing relationships with the United States and other Western countries. Diplomatic relations were suspended from 1987 to 1990, and they were more recently suspended from 2016 to 2023 again following certain issues like the intervention in Yemen, Iran embassy bombing in Yemen, incidents during the 2015 Hajj, the execution of Nimr al-Nimr, and the attack on the Saudi diplomatic missions in Iran. However, in March 2023, after discussions brokered by China, Iran and Saudi Arabia agreed to reestablish relations. In October 2024, Saudi Arabia and Iran made efforts to improve their relations. In a meeting in Doha, Qatar, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud discussed the promotion of bilateral ties, Israeli attacks on Gaza and Lebanon, and Iran’s retaliatory attacks on Israel. The two sides emphasized the need to set aside their differences and work towards the expansion of relations.
