When we talk to Saudi Arabia regarding Iran they don't have an intention to say things like, "Let's wage war on Iran, let's destroy Iran, let's do this or that in Iran." They have different opinions on this matter.

MBS in his recent conversation with Mr. Trump shared the view that this war must stop as soon as possible, that military intervention against Iran is in no way a solution, and that this issue should be resolved through dialogue and agreement.

This is what they're seeing in Saudi Arabia: it doesn't matter how many alliances you have during a war in the region because that doesn't stop you from getting hurt, but you still need to be deterrent.

When Iran resolves its own problems in the region, and when it comes to contributing to constructive regional policies and entering a collective arena, their role is needed. We always say this.

The Iranians are not unfamiliar with this issue.

"We're not at war, but we are the daily target of hybrid warfare," Dobrindt told Bild am Sonntag.

He said espionage, sabotage, cyberattacks, and covert foreign operations aimed at destabilizing Germany or causing direct damage have become a "constant reality," accusing foreign powers of seeking to spread fear and weaken the country politically and socially.
