Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud on Wednesday took a tough stance against Iran, saying that his country has the full right to take military action against Iran. While talking to journalists, he said that Iran does not believe in talks with its neighbors but instead tries to put pressure on them, but this pressure is useless and will backfire.
There is no point in Middle East war, attacks on our country should stop: Prince Faisal
Faisal bin Farhan clearly said, ‘Saudi Arabia will not bow down to this pressure. This pressure will backfire politically as well as morally. We have clearly stated that we reserve the right to take military action if necessary.
He further said that Saudi Arabia’s biggest concern right now is to stop the attacks on Gulf countries. In response to a question, he said that it does not matter to him whether the war ends now or whether America and Israel further weaken Iran’s missile capability. All that is needed is that the attacks on their country and neighboring countries should stop immediately.
Prince Faisal said, ‘My only focus is that we are not involved in this conflict, that is, the attacks on my country and neighboring countries should stop. That’s my only aim. We will use every means political, economic and diplomatic to stop these attacks.
Complete loss of trust in Iran: Prince Faisal
Foreign Minister Prince Faisal said that the little trust left in Iran has now been completely broken. The attacks on Iran’s neighboring countries were planned in advance and what is happening now confirms this. He expressed hope that Iran would understand the message of today’s meeting, quickly settle its accounts and stop attacking its neighbors.
Faisal bin Farhan reiterated that his patience against Iranian aggression is now limited. He said clearly, ‘Our patience is not unlimited.’
Iran fired four ballistic missiles at Saudi
Iran’s March 18 attack was termed as ‘blackmail’. Saudi Arabia said that just before the start of the meeting, four ballistic missiles were fired towards Riyadh, which were completely destroyed. The minister said, ‘It was clear to me that this attack was timed with today’s meeting so that the people present here could be intimidated. The attempt was to send a message that Iran will not stop.
He stressed, ‘We are not afraid, we do not believe at all that Iran behaving like this can be a legitimate partner. Whatever little trust was left has also been completely destroyed.
Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister was saying all these things to journalists during the meeting of foreign ministers of regional and Islamic countries in Riyadh. The entire statement gives a clear message that Saudi Arabia will no longer tolerate any threat or pressure from Iran and is ready to take every step for the security of neighboring countries.
