Saudi Arabia's Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman just said in an interview that Iran is preparing to seek control over the Muslim world. Because of this latest report, it looks like Saudi is not ruling out any possible accord and reconciliation with the Islamic Republic.
In the said interview, the Prince shared that Iran is actually looking forward to the arrival of Mahdi which is believed to be prophesied, Shiite savior. With this, the Prince concluded that Iran actually wants to control the Muslim world.
However, according to Bloomberg, Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zariff claimed that what the prince said in the interview was not the real case. He then shared also that Saudi Arabia just wants to create tensions most especially the crisis in the Middle East.
It can be recalled that Iran criticized Saudi Arabia before regarding the latter's offensive military in Yemen. The Foreign Minster then added and made it clear that they are not looking forward to creating conflict with Saudi.
Reports have escalated before that Iran and Saudi Arabia were in conflicts regarding the tension and crisis in the Middle East. The two countries were in complete opposition about the crisis in Iraq and Syria. Moreover, Saudi Arabia was in conflict with Yemen before regarding the former's desire to bring back the rule of an internationally-recognized government which was somewhat similar to that of Iran.
With the arising conflict with Saudi Arabia, TIME reported that Iran is not actually considering the presence of a mediator though this will also be helpful. This is because Iran does not consider that the main issue here is about mediating them and the kingdom. What is needed at the moment, according to the Foreign Minister is for Saudi Arabia to change its ways and approach in dealing conflicts.
Aside from this report, it was claimed that there is a possibility that Iran and Saudi Arabia will likely reconcile on the end and try to resolve the conflict and crisis in Yemen. If these two countries will only learn the way to deal with each other properly, then there will be no need for further mediation.
