00:00So, Saudi Arabia's foreign minister has met Marco Rubio in Washington.
00:05As unrest does continue across the Middle East, what topics have dominated these talks?
00:13Most likely topics dominating these talks would be the big Armada now gathering along the shores of the Gulf and the Red Sea.
00:26First of all, dealing with this Houthi threat, as we know, as we remember, Houthis were a source of threat to Saudi Arabia.
00:36Now there is a fragile ceasefire in the country.
00:41However, we have this push by the U.S. today to get the Houthis to reopen the strait.
00:50At the same time, we have the threat of possible action against Iran.
00:56That's also a big cause of concern to the whole region.
01:00In addition to the situation in Gaza, you know, the continued Israeli operation, the war in there,
01:08the suffering that's being brought on the people, and that Strip has been of huge problem to everybody.
01:17So, I think on security side, these would be like the top issues.
01:22And I think we'll have to make sure that they are the resistance to the border.
