ran, Saudi Arabia reaffirm commitment to China-brokered détente
A statement issued by the three sides at the end of the meeting said Saudi Arabia and Iran welcomed the continued positive role played by China and the importance of its support and follow-up on the implementation of the Beijing Agreement that was signed in March 2023.
China underscored its readiness to continue to support and encourage the steps taken by Saudi Arabia and Iran to develop their relationship in various fields.
The three countries welcomed the continued progress in Saudi-Iranian relations and the opportunities it provides for direct communication between the two countries at all levels.
They noted the great importance of these contacts, meetings, and mutual visits between senior officials from the two countries, especially in light of the current regional tensions and escalation that threaten the regional and global security.
The officials welcomed the progress of consular services between the two countries, which allowed more than 87,000 Iranian pilgrims to perform the Hajj and more than 52,000 Iranians to perform the Umrah during the first ten months of 2024.
