DIALOGUE URGED TO PREVENT FURTHER ESCALATION
The international committee has expressed worries about the rising tensions in the Gulf following the attacks on Saudi oil supply, while calling for restraint and dialogue to resolve the crisis.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Sunday condemned the attacks on Saudi oil facilities, while urging "all parties to exercise maximum restraint, prevent any escalation amid heightened tensions."
Experts said that whether the Aramco attacks are done by the Houthi rebels or Iran, it is related to the U.S. sanctions imposed on Tehran, which is forced to take counter measures in a bid to force Washington to back down.
"The Iranian-Saudi deteriorated ties cast negative shadow on the Gulf region and on the world generally. When the conflict affects the oil prices, the world economy will be impacted," Ikram Bader, a professor of political science in Cairo University, told Xinhua in an interview.
Bader suggested the Gulf partners reach a common stand in dealing with Yemen's crisis and finish the war there "which will definitely break the icy ties between Riyadh and Tehran."
Soliman, an expert in the Iranian affairs, said that the parties concerned should ease the tensions by reaching a mechanism for negotiations and find a political solution.
"The U.S. and Iran should sit down on the negotiation table and avoid escalation. They should reach a mechanism on the nuclear deal," he said.
