In April 2023 Saudi Arabia and Iran’s foreign ministers met in Beijing to discuss reopening their diplomatic missions in their respective countries, to encourage visits of official and private delegations, and to facilitate visas for Iranian and Saudi citizens.

We shouldn't get involved as both countries are dictatorships, we should only get involved if a stable liberal democratic country is under threat.
@9J25S8V 3mos3MO
Either way, significant progress is unrealistic as both countries are moving in the opposite directions
@9Q953CS5mos5MO
Yes, but again only if the sides are serious. If its a political ploy just to get one over on the other, then leave them to fight it out
@9P7LLKJ5mos5MO
Not at any cost or ridiculous bank rolling of diplomatic partys and stupid wages and budgets that are provided to foriegn emissaries.
@9P6LYBD5mos5MO
Yes, but we should not be involved unless invited, we should always promote diplomatic peace talks during foreign conflicts

No, because it’s a complete waste of time, Iran is too unstable and dangerous And I don’t Think Iran Wants to have peace I think the only way we are going to achieve peace as we are going to have to destroy Iran And their dictator, we need to do everything necessary to stop the spread of Islamic Republic.
