High-level delegations from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey are in Tehran for talks aimed at preventing renewed fighting between Iran, Israel and the United States.
High-level delegations from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey met Iranian authorities on Monday to discuss preventing renewed fighting between Iran, Israel and the United States. The Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman, Pakistan's army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and Turkey's intelligence service head were among those meeting Iran's top security officials and negotiators.
The talks come as tensions rise ahead of elections in both Israel and the United States. Israeli and American leaders have been sharpening threats, while Iranian leaders have remained defiant. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said Tehran had not closed the window of diplomacy and that messages were being passed to the United States via intermediaries, though negotiations have long stalled.
Saudi Arabia said in a statement that the delegations hoped to find 'ways to de-escalate tensions, enhance regional security and promote its stability'. The war in Yemen and strikes by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels against Saudi Arabia were also discussed.
