Tehran and Riyadh reached an agreement in early March to resume diplomatic relations after years of hostility. The talks were brokered by China.
According to the National, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Tuesday that his country is ready to support a follow-up process between Saudi Arabia and Iran to restore diplomatic relations.
Xi’s comments came in a phone call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, state media CCTV reported.
The crown prince told Xi of the importance of the strategic relations between the two countries and that he appreciated Chinese efforts to develop relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran, said the kingdom’s official state media SPA.
“During the call, they reviewed aspects of partnership between the kingdom and China, and joint coordination efforts to enhance cooperation between the two countries in various fields,” SPA said.
