Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir made a rare visit to Baghdad on Saturday, meeting with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, the premier's media office said.

It was the first visit of a senior Saudi minister since the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003, a spokesman for Iraq's foreign ministry told Reuters.

Saudi Arabia reopened its embassy in Baghdad a year ago following a 25-year shutdown.

But Iraq later asked for the ambassador to be replaced after he made comments about Iranian involvement in Iraqi affairs and the alleged persecution of Sunni Muslims, angering local Shi'ite politicians and militia leaders.

Saudi Arabia has long accused Iraq of being too close to Shi'ite Iran, its main regional rival, and of encouraging sectarian discrimination against Sunnis, a charge Baghdad denies.

Enmity between Sunni and Shi'ite regional powers has deepened in recent years as sectarian conflicts rage in Syria, Yemen and Iraq.

Saudi FM Visits Baghdad to Mend Ties

He meets with PM Abadi and FM Jafaari 

26/02/2017 - 01:08

 

BAGHDAD — Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir on Saturday made an unprecedented visit to Baghdad to meet with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi in a bid to heal the strained relations between Riyadh and Baghdad.

The Sunni kingdom and Shi’ite-led government of Iraq recently experienced intensifying political tensions especially after the execution of Shi’ite cleric Nimir al-Nimir by Riyadh over terrorism-related offenses last year.

Their diplomatic relation faced further difficulties following comments by Saudi Ambassador Thamer al-Sabhan on the active role in Iraq’s policy-making process and internal issues.

Citing a source from Iraq’s Foreign Ministry, Reuters said Jubeir has announced that his country is planning to appoint a new ambassador to Baghdad and it would support resuming direct flights between the two countries.

"The kingdom stands at an equal distance from all Iraqis communities making up Iraq and supports the unity and stability of Iraq,” he told reporters following a meeting with his Iraqi counterpart Ibrahim al-Jaafari.

"The visit is a Saudi attempt to balance Iran's role in Iraq," Ahmed Younis, a professor of international relations at the University of Baghdad, told Reuters. "It's a message that the kingdom is keen that the Sunnis take their role and not be marginalized.”

This is the first visit of a Saudi Foreign Minister to Iraq since 1990.

Iran is outraged over Saudi FM's visit to Iraq

February 27 2017 07:44 PM

Abadi and Al-Jubeir

Observers revealed that the Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei  is furious at the visit that Saudi foreign minister paid to Iraq last Saturday, where he met with Iraqi senior officials, including Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi.
 

This visit will not go unanswered by the Mullah regime leader, given that it came few days after the Saudi open accusations to Iran it is fomenting the terror and sectarian agenda in the region, the observers told the Baghdad Post.
 

The Iranian president Hassan Rouhani is also outraged by the visit, who considers the visit 'a blow to him' as he visited Oman and Kuwait days ago.
 

A balance-shifting visit
 

According to analysts, Al-Jubeir's visit to Iraq has shifted balances, for not only it is the first visit for Saudi senior official in 13 years to Baghdad, but because Al-Jubeir had publicly criticized Iran at different regional and international forums.
 

The visit was coordinated directly between the offices of the Saudi foreign ministry and Iraqi prime minister Haider Al-Abadi.
 

This coordination angered Iranian political and intelligence institutions, as they thought Abadi would not dare to do such a move for they consider Iraq 'the backyard of Iran.
 

Also, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry was not involving in the arrangements of the visit, as Ibrahim Al-Jaafari was discontented with the visit.
 

He took jab at Riyadh two months ago.
 

Al-Jaafari is also said to be in liaison with the Iranian revolutionary and Khamenei.
 

Walking into lion's den
 

Regional sources said that the recent Saudi visit to Iraq is like 'walking into the lion's den, given the reports circulating about Saudi huge assistance to Iraq along with security arrangements.
 

They consider such measures 'a bold move' by the Saudis to bring Iraq back to the Arab nation.
 

Saudi Arabia and Iraq are facing the threat of terrorism, Saudi foreign minister said, adding the kingdom is not taking sides with any certain faction in Iraq.
 

He revealed that the two sides are working to boost ties and seeking to discuss the possibility of opening direct air lines between the two countries.
 

Saudi minister's visit is a step in the right direction, said Razaq Abdel-Aema, member of Iraqi parliament's Foreign Relations Committee.
 

The committee reiterated on several occasions that the sticking points between Iraq and Saudi Arabia should be resolved, he added.
