United States President Donald Trump and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) held a telephone call on Wednesday to discuss the current situation regarding the war with Iran, Axios correspondent Barak Ravid reported, citing two unnamed sources with knowledge of the matter.
Trump briefed the crown prince on the alleged talks with Tehran and the possibility of reaching a ceasefire. The US president previously said he could agree to end hostilities if Iran unblocked the Strait of Hormuz, but the Iranian authorities denied any negotiations were taking place.
During the course of the war, Iranian attacks also struck US military bases on Saudi territory, though Tehran maintained that its retaliation was not directed at Riyadh. On the other hand, the media speculated that Saudi Arabia pressured Trump to continue the conflict to further weaken the government in Tehran.
