Saudi tour of Pompeo:
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also began a three-day visit to Saudi Arabia on Wednesday. During the visit, he is expected to hold talks with Saudi King Salman, King Mohammed bin Salman and Foreign Minister Faisal Bin Farhan on various issues. In addition to strengthening bilateral cooperation in security and military affairs, the meeting will also have priority in addressing the threat posed by Iran in their language.
The US Secretary of State has traveled to Saudi Arabia several times so far, whose main goal was to find a way to address Islamic Iran. Mike Pompeo said he came to Riyadh to seek security in Saudi Arabia and to find ways to address Iran. He reiterated earlier claims, "We are ready to negotiate with Iran anywhere, but Iran must change its behavior and the attempt to exert maximum pressure on the country will continue."
Observers say the Trump administration has always supported the Saudi government. This is because Riyadh is the main strategic ally of Washington in West Asia, and they buy the most weapons from the United States. Apart from economic interests, the United States is using Saudi Arabia as a political and military tool. He is demanding extra money in return for security, even though US President Trump has extended his support to Saudi Arabia after Yemeni fighters launched a missile attack in the Saudi oil field. In addition, he blamed Iran for the attack and was trying to spread the tensions.
Observers say Yemen has failed to stop Yemen's missiles, despite Washington's overwhelming support for Riyadh and the purchase of billions of dollars worth of weapons from Saudi Arabia. So what is the outcome of the US Foreign Minister's visit to Saudi Arabia is now a matter of watching.
