On June 6, Iran will officially open its embassy and consulate general in Saudi Arabia.
On June 5, the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the opening of the Iranian Embassy in Riyadh will take place on June 6 with the participation of representatives from both countries.
It is also reported that on June 7 of this year, the Iranian Consulate General in Jeddah and the permanent Mission of Iran to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation will be officially opened.
The Iranian Embassy and Consulate General in Saudi Arabia, as well as the Mission of Iran to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, were closed in 2016 after relations between the countries sharply deteriorated.
In March 2023, with the mediation of China, Iran and Saudi Arabia agreed to restore diplomatic relations.
