Saudi Deputy Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman said Thursday that he has discussed with the US special representative on Iran, Brian Hook, efforts to counter the Iranian regime's hostile behavior.
“Pleased to meet with UN Special Representative for Iran Mr. Brian Hook to explore the latest efforts to counter hostile Iranian acts and continuous escalation that threaten the region’s security and stability,” Prince Khalid said in a tweet.
“We affirmed the Kingdom’s support for the United States maximum pressure campaign on Iran, which came as a result of continuing Iranian hostility and terrorism, and discussed the latest Iranian attacks on the Kingdom,” he tweeted.
The Deputy Defense Minister said he also discussed with Hook “the dangerous role that the Iranian regime plays in Yemen, where it neglects the humanitarian needs of the Yemeni people in favor of using the country as the main launchpad for its regional terrorism.”
