Saudi Arabia's dialogue with the Islamic Republic of Iran in recent months has been one of the most significant events in the region. Riyadh is trying to resolve some of its regional problems through negotiations with Tehran. The war in Yemen is the most important demand of the Saudi government in a bid to save itself from crisis through talking to Tehran.
In every round of talks, Iran has reminded and emphasized that it is not a mediator and does not negotiate on behalf of anyone, including the Yemenis, and that Saudi Arabia must hold direct talks with the "National Salvation Government in Sanaa" if it wants to resolve its crisis in Yemen.
So far, there have been four rounds of talks between Iran and Saudi Arabia.
