Asharq News reported that Trump said Monday he did not intend to launch new strikes against Iran for now, after appeals from regional countries, including Qatar. Separately, Rubio said in Paris on Tuesday that large-scale combat against Iran was not currently needed, an assessment he said he had conveyed to US allies. In statements carried by the Saudi Press Agency, the Saudi Foreign Ministry has emphasized de-escalation, dialogue and diplomatic solutions, while calling for a lasting agreement that accounts for regional security and restores safe, free navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. The Ministry has also condemned Iranian attacks on Saudi and regional targets.
