RIYADH, 26 February, 2021 (TON): On Thursday, the U.S. President and Saudi Arabia’s King Salman discussed regional and global stability during a phone call.

King Salman congratulated Biden for taking charge of the office last month during the call.
Reports state the talks dealt with the most important issues in the region and reviewed developments of common interest.

Iran’s behavior in the region and its destabilizing activities and its support for terrorist groups were also discussed.

“King Salman thanked the US president for Washington’s commitment to defend the Kingdom against any threats and his assurance that Iran would not be allowed to possess nuclear weapons,” media said.

King Salman said the Kingdom was keen to reach a comprehensive political solution in Yemen and to achieve security and development for the Yemeni people.

A statement from the White House said the US president told King Salman he would work to make the bilateral relationship as strong and transparent as possible.

However, the talks ground on the importance of strengthening the partnership between the two countries and the depth of their historical relations.
