Iran FM: Saudi Crown Prince Made Mistake When Thinking He Would Defeat Yemenis Within Three Weeks

Iranian Foreign Minister Muhammad Javad Zarif said that Iran’s initiative to stop the aggression against Yemen is still available, and that the visit of the UN envoy to Yemen to Tehran has no relation with the recent US position on the aggression on Yemen.

He added in an interview with Iranian Channel 2, Sunday, about his country’s position on the situation in Yemen, that “Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman made a mistake when he thought that he would defeat the Yemenis within three weeks, as 6 years have passed since his illusions to defeat Yemen.”

Regarding easing tension with Saudi Arabia, Zarif made it clear that Saudi Arabia must reduce its arms expenditures if it wants to sit with Iran at the dialogue table.

He pointed out that “Saudi Arabia was relying on Trump, and after his departure from power, it refuge in Israel,” stressing that “Saudi Arabia hinders any negotiations between Iran and the countries of the region because it is counting on the west.”

He continued, “We suggest to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the Emirates and the rest of the countries of the region to sit for talks under the supervision of the United Nations.”

Zarif pointed out that “Iran is not negotiating with the West over regional affairs. Rather, it is ready for dialogue with countries in the region itself.”
