Riyadh to Tehran: "No Attack on Iran from Saudi Territory or Airspace"

The Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman assured Iranian President Masoud Pezeskian in a phone call that the Kingdom will not allow any attack against Iran from its territory or airspace. The Saudi Crown Prince also reaffirmed the Kingdom's position on respecting Iran's national sovereignty and the need to resolve disputes through dialogue to enhance security and stability in the region. The United Arab Emirates issued a similar assurance. Uncertainty remains regarding a potential US military operation against Iran, with President Donald Trump mentioning the deployment of an “armada” to the region but expressing hope for a “deal”.
