TEHRAN (Press TV) -- Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani said on Tuesday the United States is the root cause of Iran-Saudi Arabia conflicts, slamming Washington for hindering a resolution of the disputes between the two Middle Eastern countries.
"Iran is not opposed to the settlement of issues between Iran and the Saudis but the Americans do not allow that to happen because they are benefiting from such conflicts,” he told president of Austria’s Federal Council Ingo Appé in Belgrade on the sidelines of the 141st assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU).
