Saudi officials visit building of former embassy in Iranian capital

Saudi officials visited the building of the country's former embassy in Tehran, Iranian media write.

Representatives of the kingdom arrived in the Iranian capital on Saturday in preparation for the opening of the embassy. First of all, they visited the building of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Let us remind you that about a month ago, Tehran and Riyadh began to restore diplomatic relations, which had been interrupted 7 years ago. Last Thursday, the heads of the Iranian and Saudi foreign ministries announced their readiness to open embassies and consulates on the territory of their countries.
