Iran welcomes Saudi prince’s olive branch
The Islamic republic "welcomes the change of tone from Saudi Arabia", said foreign ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman called Tuesday in a TV interview for "a good and special relationship" with Tehran, after sources said the two countries had held secret talks in Baghdad.
Khatibzadeh, in a statement, said that "by adopting constructive stances... the two countries... can enter a new chapter of interaction and cooperation to reach peace, stability and regional development, by overcoming differences".
