Saudi Arabia has backed Pakistan’s diplomatic role in reducing tensions between the United States and Iran, urging all parties to show restraint amid ongoing instability in the Gulf region. The Kingdom emphasized the need to avoid escalation and promote dialogue to prevent the crisis from worsening.
In a statement from Riyadh, officials highlighted diplomacy as the key solution to conflicts and stressed the importance of maintaining secure maritime routes, especially through the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global trade corridor facing rising security concerns.
The support comes after recent military developments in the region, which have heightened global concerns despite reports of a temporary ceasefire achieved through Pakistan’s mediation. Saudi authorities called for continued commitment from all sides to sustain peace and avoid further conflict.
