An Iranian ministerial delegation including the Iranian economy minister is visiting Riyadh in order to participate in the meeting of the Islamic Development Bank.

Speaking at his weekly press conference on Monday morning, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kan'ani said that consultations and dialogues are underway between Tehran and Riyadh at the political and economic levels.

"We have had economic issues on the agenda since the beginning of the resumption of negotiations between the two sides, and both sides are unanimous on this matter, and the talks are ongoing," the senior Iranian diplomat said.

Iran and Saudi Arabia signed a China-brokered deal in March 2023 to resume their diplomatic relations after they cut them in 2016.

The two sides reopened their respective embassies a few months later.
