“What happened in Iraq yesterday is the continuation of the process of democracy in that country. We welcome the successful holding of the elections in Iraq,” Khatibzadeh said, commenting on Sunday's Iraqi elections.

As for the attack on anti-Iran bases in Iraq, Khatibzadeh affirmed that Iran had repeatedly warned its "friends in Iraq and the Iraqi Kurdistan region" against the existence of such bases, which run counter to the rules of good neighborliness. “Those bases must be removed. The (Kurdistan) Region and the Baghdad government are aware of this issue. Those bases cannot keep working. We will act according to our interests wherever necessary."

Negotiations with Saudi Arabia progressing uninterruptedly

With regards to Iranian-Saudi relations, Khatibzadeh clarified that dialogue with Saudi Arabia may be "one of the pillars of peace and stability in the Persian Gulf region," further noting that negotiations between Iran and Saudi Arabia are still taking place behind closed doors. he went on to say that Iran is in constant communication with Saudi Arabia and the talks are now in a more serious stage.

The Spokesperson also clarified that Iran and Saudi Arabia have talked about a number of common and regional issues, including Yemen, stating that the conditions of the Yemeni people are tragic and that the talks with Saudi Arabia are focused on maintaining security in Yemen.

Tehran had repeatedly said it supports dialogue with Riyadh and is ready for talks with Saudi Arabia at any level, affirming the "importance of dialogue between countries of the Islamic World to resolve current disputes."
