Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said on Monday that initial steps to appoint ambassadors between Saudi Arabia and Iran are currently taking place and that a delegation from Tehran will travel to Riyadh on April 11 to prepare the opening of the Iranian embassy in Saudi Arabia's capital and the consulate in Jeddah. 

"The initial steps between Iran and Saudi Arabia to appoint ambassadors have been made," he said, as quoted by the Iranian news agency ISNA.

Last week, Saudi technical specialists landed in Tehran to prepare for the opening of the Saudi Arabian embassy and the consulate general in Mashhad.

These measures are carried out within the framework of the Chinese-brokered agreement on restoring the two countries' diplomatic relations which were concluded on March 10.
