Summary
Oct. 26 talks in Tehran ended with Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan agreeing to continue meetings on regional peace and security, according to Iran's National Security Council secretary Mohsen Rezaei.
Rezaei said the discussions centered on what participants described as an Israeli threat, with Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman warning Israel could target Turkey and then Saudi Arabia after Iran.
Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin and Pakistani army chief Asim Munir also took firm anti-Israel positions, Rezaei said, adding that the three countries had requested the Tehran meeting.
Foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan could also travel to Iran for follow-up talks, pointing to a broader regional coordination effort if the four-way channel continues.
