As Saudi Arabia and Iran held talks in Amman aimed at easing tensions between the regional rivals, a Saudi diplomat accused Tehran on Monday of “playing games” in negotiations with Riyadh.
According to Jordan’s state news agency Petra, Saudi Arabia and Iran took part in a “security dialogue” hosted in the Jordanian capital by the Arab Institute for Security Studies. The talks, which covered Iran’s nuclear program and wrapped up on Monday, took place in “an atmosphere of mutual respect,” the report cites the institute’s head, Ayman Khalil, as saying.
