Saudi Arabia has expressed its willingness to mediate between the Trump administration and Iran in an effort to negotiate a new deal aimed at curbing Tehran's nuclear program. The kingdom's concerns stem from the belief that Iran may now be more inclined to pursue a nuclear weapon following the weakening of its regional proxies, which have historically served as a deterrent against Israeli attacks.
Saudi Arabia is looking to leverage its close relationship with President Donald Trump to facilitate diplomatic dialogue between Iran and the United States. While it remains unclear if a formal offer has been made, this move underscores Riyadh's desire to strengthen its improved relations with Iran and play a role in potential negotiations for a new agreement.
