Riyadh and Washington review defense ties
Saudi Arabia and the United States discussed the defense partnership and regional coordination between the two countries during a phone call between Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman and U.S. Defense Secretary Bill Hegseth. The talks focused on strengthening security and stability in the region, including addressing regional and international issues such as tensions with Iran, the war in Yemen, and the impact of disruptions to navigation through the Strait of Hormuz on global oil supplies. These discussions come amidst escalating regional tensions and the aftermath of the conflict with Iran, which began in February 2026, as well as Saudi Arabia’s ongoing alliance with the Arab Coalition supporting the Yemeni government since 2015.
