Saudi Gazette report

Cairo -- Saudi Arabia will not sit idle in the face of Iranian blatant aggression and will not hesitate to defend its national security and preserve the safety of its people, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir told an emergency meeting of Arab League foreign ministers here on Sunday.

"The ballistic missile launched on my country's capital reflects the repeated Iranian attacks against the Kingdom, which witnessed the launch of 80 Iranian ballistic missiles through its Houthi agents in Yemen. It did not even care about the Muslims' Qiblah by launching three ballistic missiles in a blatant attack on Islamic sanctities and a provocation to the feelings of Muslims around the world," Jubeir said.

He stressed that the Kingdom has tried since the beginning of the Iranian revolution to deal with Iran in accordance with the requirements of the principle of good-neighborliness and mutual respect, but unfortunately Iran has ignored all these efforts, violated all international laws, customs, principles and ethics, and tried to export revolution.

"These aggressive Iranian practices have made the international community classify Iran as the first state sponsoring terrorism in the world and subjected it to sanctions because of its continued violations of international laws and states sovereignty, the planting of terrorist cells, the smuggling of weapons, the attacks on diplomatic missions, and the creation of agents in our Arab region such as the Houthis, Hezbollah, and its harboring of terrorist organizations inside and outside Iran such as Al-Qaeda."

Jubeir said that any laxness in dealing with Iran's aggressive policies would encourage it to continue its aggression.
