Iran and Saudi Arabia agree to re-establish diplomatic relations and re-open embassies after years of tensions between the two countries
The agreement comes amid efforts by diplomats to end a years-long war in Yemen, a conflict in which both Iran and Saudi Arabia are deeply entrenched on opposite sides.
Iran and Saudi Arabia have agreed to restore ties and to reopen respective diplomatic missions after talks in China, state media in both countries reported, seven years after relations were severed. Ali Shamkhani, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, had travelled to Beijing on Monday for "intensive negotiations with his Saudi counterpart in China in order to finally resolve the problems between Tehran and Riyadh", IRNA said.
