King Salman of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has on Sunday accused regional rival Iran of exporting extremist Islamic movements to the world and vowed to eliminate the Islamic State group.
“The Iranian regime has been the spearhead of global terrorism since the (Ayatollah Ruhollah) Khomeini revolution” in 1979, the Saudi monarch said in a speech to leaders including US President Donald Trump. “We did not know terrorism and extremism until the Khomeini revolution reared its head,” he said. Saudi Arabia was also determined to “eliminate the Islamic State group”, the king said.
