(Reuters) – U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan on Monday met with Saudi Arabian Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman Al Saud and confirmed President Joe Biden’s commitment to support the defense of U.S. partners against threats from state and non-state actors, including those backed by Iran, the White House said.
The two men also affirmed the importance of deterring any expansion of the Israel-Hamas conflict, the White House said.
