Riyadh and Tehran recently reached an agreement, negotiated by China, for a resumption of their relations. They are expected to reopen their embassies by mid-May and implement economic and security cooperation agreements signed more than 20 years ago.
The rapprochement should be formally sealed on the occasion of a visit by Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi to Riyadh, at the invitation of King Salman of Saudi Arabia, a trip planned after Ramadan. France 24 invites you to look back on the news that marked the week.
