Faisal said: "We were pleased when the Iranian revolution called it the Islamic Revolution, for we were expecting it will be a champion of Arab and Islamic causes, and helpful for us in the Islamic nation's service, and the consolidation of security and stability in the region, but we were surprised by the policy of exporting the revolution and destabilizing security and peace as well as the blatant interference in the affairs of the region's countries and stirring up discord among peoples of the same faith, and this trend has raised our many questions about the nature of the interest that Iran would win by dividing the Arab and Muslim world, and its attempts to push them into the abyss with no way out. The Minister of Foreign Affairs added: Today, we are not going to condemn or discharge Iran, but we will test its intentions, by extending our hands to it as a Muslim neighbor in order to open a new page, and if we may have the right to consider Iran as a country of civilization - and we do - it should, out of its duty, be a builder of a civilization promoting security and peace in the region and not destabilizing them. He further said that "Iran as a Muslim country, the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, the Prophet (peace be upon him), should be of its duty to serve Islamic causes and not dispersing them, and Iran should realize that the call for Islamic solidarity will remain and it is more useful to Iran is to take part in this trend rather than what it calls for the export of revolution." On the Iranian nuclear file, Prince Saud Al-Faisal called on countries of (5 +1) to seek achieving compatibility firstly between Iran and Arab countries, rather than circumvent the interests of the countries in the region to entice Iran with gains that cannot be reaped unless it cooperated with the region's countries. --More 16:10 LOCAL TIME 13:10 GMT تغريد
