Al-Faisal was quoted by the country’s official news agency Tuesday evening, May 13, 2014, as saying he has invited Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif to visit the kingdom, a step that could represent a significant thaw between the two oil-rich nations. Zarif in recent months has visited several Gulf states in a sign of improving relations with Iran’s Sunni neighbors. (AP Photo/Brendan Smialowski, Pool, File)
