Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held a joint press conference in Moscow, addressing regional tensions and bilateral relations. Prince Faisal condemned Houthi attacks on Saudi civilian infrastructure, calling them a "blatant violation" of international law and a threat to regional security. He warned that the Houthis' "selfishness will lead to results that cannot be bearable", while reaffirming that Saudi Arabia "will never hesitate to defend itself" but remains committed to diplomacy. Lavrov said Western powers were responsible for the roots of the Ukraine conflict, accusing the European Union of blocking efforts to address its "deep roots". Both ministers discussed expanding the Saudi-Russian strategic partnership across investment, trade and culture, and explored regional security initiatives involving Gulf countries, Iraq, Jordan and UN Security Council members.
