King Salman bin Abdulaziz and President Donald Trump agreed in Riyadh to paralyzing Iran's role in Syria and in the region through striking its military arms and allied militias, well-informed sources told Zaman al-Wasl.
Iran's policy has hammered the region with mounting accusations that 'Persians' seek to expand imperor under a religious cover taking Saudi Arabia as main enemy, pro-Gulf-States analysts say.
On Monday, Iran’s foreign minister Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif launched an attack on Saudi Arabia, urging Trump to ask his Saudi counterparts “who knocked down the World Trade centre”.
Saudi King Salman shot back during a speech in Riyadh on Sunday, at which Trump also gave a mammoth talk on peace in the Middle East.
King Salman said: “The Iranian regime has been the spearhead of global terrorism.
“Iran has turned down all good neighbourliness offered to it in good will.
President Trump also blamed the Iranians for unsettling the Middle East, sponsoring Islamic State and being the key road block to peace.
In the same breath, the 70-year-old signed a $400 billion deal with Iran that includes $110 billion worth of state-of-the-art weapons and defence systems.
The main concern will be undermining the Iranian role in Syria, sources assured to Zaman al-Wasl, as Turmp had suggested to King Salman to not discuss Bashar al-Assad's future in the meantime.
Mr. Trump, from Jerusalem, has also criticized the Iranian danger making clear that his Middle Eastern policy is to fight the enemy of all, which is Iran, analysts told Zaman al-Wasl.
The Saudis have recalled an Arab proverb says 'Enemy of my enemy is a friend,' such a common vision will hasten the Syrian solution even if the bad choice is the military action against Iran in the war-torn country, according to hte analysts.
