Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), accompanied by senior foreign policy aides, arrived in Riyadh to meet top Saudi officials, including the defense minister, focusing on expanding economic cooperation and strengthening bilateral ties.
The trip marks the continuation of diplomatic exchanges between Iran and Saudi Arabia following Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman’s visit to Tehran earlier this year.
Mohammad Ali Bek, Assistant for Persian Gulf Affairs at Iran’s Foreign Ministry, and Ali Bagheri Kani, Iran’s Deputy for Foreign Policy at the Supreme National Security Council, are accompanying Larijani in his Riyadh visit.
The delegation will meet with top Saudi officials, including the defense minister, to discuss broadening economic cooperation and enhancing bilateral relations.
This visit represents the third stop in Larijani’s regional diplomatic tour; he previously visited Baghdad and Beirut last month to strengthen regional dialogue and collaboration.
