Saudi Arabia warns Iran on regional unrest

Saudi Arabia has warned Iran not to use its power and cash to interfere in regional affairs after Tehran gets long-awaited sanctions relief. Iran should instead spend its resources on domestic concerns, a Saudi source was quoted as saying by the state-run SPA news agency.

The source notes that Saudi Arabia has placed importance on the deal between Tehran and six world powers and says that Saudi Arabia supports maintaining international sanctions on Tehran because of its support for militant groups.   (dpa)
