Iran says ‘mediocre’ Saudis have no place in nuclear talks
Iran flatly dismisses a call by Saudi Arabia for Gulf states to be consulted on any potential negotiations with the Islamic Republic on its nuclear program.
“Everyone is free to talk, but it’s better that they do not talk above their level so that they don’t embarrass themselves,” Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh tells reporters
“Dwelling too much about the place of a mediocre country in the region does not help,” the spokesman says in response to repeated questions on the Saudi position.
