Secretary of State John Kerry called Monday for US-Saudi ties to stay
"on track" ahead of talks with King Abdullah, after Saudi anger over US
policy in the region flared into the open.
The top US diplomat was hastily dispatched to Riyadh to patch things up after rare complaints from the top Saudi leadership emerged in recent weeks.
Kerry acknowledged things were tough as the region is rocked by the turmoil of the Arab Spring, which is reshaping the geopolitical landscape.
"Right
now we have some very important things to talk about to make certain
the Saudi-US relationship is on track, moving forward and doing the
things that we need to accomplish," he told US embassy staff in Riyadh.
The upheaval sweeping parts of the Middle East has witnessed the rise of powerful new extremist groups in Libya and Syria, with Iran accused of fomenting unrest to aid Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in his 31-month battle against rebel forces.
Saudi Arabia, locked in a decades-long rivalry with Iran, is concerned that proposed Syrian peace talks could leave a Tehran-backed regime in place in Damascus and that a breakthrough in nuclear negotiations could also lead to a US rapprochement with its arch foe.
Kerry paid tribute to the conservative oil-rich kingdom's traditional role in the region, praising the Saudis as "really the senior player in the Arab world."
On the eve of the opening of Morsi’s trial, Kerry was in Cairo to shore up ties with a key ally and ensure it moves ahead on plans to restore democracy just weeks after Washington suspended aid to the country.
“We are committed to work and we will continue our cooperation with the interim government,” Kerry told a joint news conference with Egyptian foreign minister Nabil Fahmy, urging “inclusive, free and fair elections”.
“The United States is a friend of the people of Egypt, of the country of Egypt, and we are a partner,” he said.
Kerry also played down Washington’s suspension just weeks ago of part of its $1.5 billion in annual aid to Cairo. - See more at: http://www.daily-sun.com/details_US-committed-to-working-with-Egypt-interim-rulers:-Kerry_664_1_12_1_0.html#sthash.d3XAjBKh.dpuf

On the eve of the opening of Morsi’s trial, Kerry was in Cairo to shore up ties with a key ally and ensure it moves ahead on plans to restore democracy just weeks after Washington suspended aid to the country.
“We are committed to work and we will continue our cooperation with the interim government,” Kerry told a joint news conference with Egyptian foreign minister Nabil Fahmy, urging “inclusive, free and fair elections”.
“The United States is a friend of the people of Egypt, of the country of Egypt, and we are a partner,” he said.
