Obama Calls Saudi King after Iran Nuclear Agreement

Local Editor

Just few days after a nuclear deal was reached by Iran and the world powers, US President Barack Obama phoned Saudi king Abdullah late Wednesday to discuss latest developments in the Middle East.

Obama and the monarch discussed “bilateral links between the two friendly countries, developments in the region, and issues of mutual interest,” state news agency SPA said.

The landmark accord, which would curb parts of Iran’s nuclear program in return for some relief from international sanctions, has received only a cautious welcome from Riyadh.

Saudi-US ties have become strained over Riyadh’s unhappiness with Washington’s policies on Syria and Iran.

In reacting to Sunday’s accord, the Saudi government said it could mark the first step towards a comprehensive solution for Iran’s nuclear program, “if there are good intentions”.
