Description
Saudi Arabia’s embassy in Iran has looked abandoned for years. It was stormed by Iranian protesters back in 2016, and it closed – an extreme low point in the two countries’ relations. A dramatic breakthrough in March led to a landmark agreement to restore ties, brokered in China. Now, both countries’ embassies are set to reopen, turning a page on seven frosty years. So what does restoring relations mean for these two powerful neighbors whose historically fractious relationship has defined the region – and, at times, the globe?
