Iran-Saudi restoration of ties ‘courageous’ act: Top Hezbollah official

Tehran, IRNA -- Deputy Chief of Lebanon’s Hezbollah Resistance Movement, Sheikh Naim Qassem, said on Wednesday that the recent move by Iran and Saudi Arabia to restore diplomatic relations was a courageous decision by the two sides.

In comments broadcast by Lebanon’s Al-Manar TV Network, Sheikh Naim Qassem said that the region is heading towards peace, stability and political solutions, with the Iranian-Saudi deal being the most important case happening in this regard.

The two countries have agreed to work together on achieving political tranquility that favors themselves and other regional countries as well, the Hezbollah official said, adding that the agreement has changed the path on which regional developments were moving forward.

There was an attitude that the Israeli regime was working to enter into an alliance with some regional countries to counter Iran; that attitude however was changed after the Iran-Saudi agreement, Sheikh Qassem noted.

The Zionist regime is facing internal problems while the resistance front is developing and gaining more victories, and the crises in Syria and Yemen are being resolved, he said, adding that all these cases are examples showing that the region is moving towards stability.

Tehran and Riyadh reached their deal to resume diplomatic ties in March 2023 under a deal brokered by China. The agreement ended more than seven years of severed ties between Iran and Saudi Arabia, two key players in the West Asia region.
