Saudi king tells Trump Iran is source of terror in Mideast
Saudi King Salman tells US President Trump and gathered Muslim-world leaders that Iran launched the terror wave seen in the Middle East since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
“The Iranian regime thought our silence was weakness and our wisdom was retreat, until we had enough of its hostile practices,” leading to Saudi involvement in “Yemen and other countries in the region.”
“We assert our respect and appreciation for the Iranian people,” Salman assures.
“We have helped our brothers and friends around the world to avoid plots targeting their security and stability.”
