The Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir on Monday expressed the kingdom's condemnation and rejection of the aggressive statements of Iranian officials concerning Iran's interventions in the internal affairs of the countries in the region, stressing that this is unacceptable for us and for our brothers in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and Arab countries.

He also expressed the kingdom's condemnation of the threats and statements made by Iranian officials towards our brothers in Bahrain. 'This is something we do not accept and reject, and we believe it does not represent the desire of a state seeking good neighborliness, but rather represents a country with ambitions in the region and adopts aggressive behaviors', he said.

During a press conference held at the headquarters of the ministry with the EU High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini, he stated that the Iranian nuclear file and the deal reached by the group of (five-plus-one) with Iran explained to us the mechanism concerning the accord to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, and that the mechanism of inspection included military sites and also a mechanism for reinstate sanctions on Iran in case of any violation of this deal.
