Relations with Iran have deteriorated since Saudi Arabia recently executed 81 people. Iran has suspended ongoing talks with Saudi Arabia. Information about the suspension of talks with Saudi Arabia has been given in the website linked to Iran’s top security body. The fifth round was to be discussed between the two countries this week, but Iran has postponed it without giving any reason. In fact, out of the 81 people who have been hanged, 41 people belong to the Shia community. This thing has gone unnoticed by Shia-majority Iran. Along with this, he has stopped the ongoing talks about the nuclear deal in Vienna.
According to the report of Knorr News, Iran has unilaterally suspended its talks with Saudi Arabia. Not only this, no information has been given about the date of the next round of talks. At present, there has been no response from Saudi Arabia regarding this. Saudi Arabia and Iran have had a dispute for a long time. The two countries had decided to come to the negotiating table last year to end the tension. Iraq’s foreign minister had said that he would host the talks between the two countries. But before that it got postponed.
Relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran deteriorated in 2016 when a Shia cleric was hanged by Saudi Arabia. This was followed by a large number of demonstrations and violence in front of the Saudi Embassy in Tehran. Let us tell you that on Saturday itself, Saudi Arabia had hanged 81 people together. This was the first time in the last few decades, when so many people were hanged together. Of these, 41 people belonged to the Shia community, who were residents of the Qatif area. Let us tell you that this area of Saudi Arabia is Shia-dominated and often there are movements against the government here.
