Saudi Arabia and Iran resumed diplomatic relations through Chinese mediation and will reopen embassies in each other's countries. Saudi Arabia and Iran reactivated bilateral accords for security cooperation, trade, and economic investment. Iranian-backed militant groups such as the Houthi insurgency in Yemen and Hezbollah operating in Syria have accepted this agreement. To take a deeper dive, Salomon Montaguth is joined by Christine Saddy and Jeremie Mahendroo from the Middle East team at The Counterterrorism Group to discuss the real impact this will have in the region.
