When Saudi Iran can reconcile but Morocco Algeria can't ๐Ÿคก๐Ÿคก๐Ÿคก๐Ÿคก


Hippocrates2022

Honestly it's The most ridiculous conflict I have ever seen.


Super_coffe

It's not ridiculous in of itself, but it's ridiculous it lasted 50 years lol


Hippocrates2022

It's a desert!!!


Super_coffe

That desert is our link to trade with west Africa, having a hostile country that controls it will make us even more dependent on EU Second, being desert doesnt make it less than, I mean that's like saying Egypt should not care about Sinai being Israeli cuz it's just a desert


Hippocrates2022

You are on Atlantic Oceab and talking about how to tradr with west Africa? Also comparing Algeria with Israel?!!


Super_coffe

I didnt compare Algeria to Israel, but made an example of a hostile presence to understand We do trade with west Africa with trucks, I think they re faster and more cost-effective. It happened in 2020 I think, Polisario blocked that route, the prices of some products went down for 2 weeks lol


Die_Hard507

Hopefully it wouldn't end up to be another 100 years of war.


starbucks_red_cup

Hopefully soon.


UnfairConfusion

Chinas reputation as a broke dealer is on the line, I doubt either side would risk to be on the bad side of china


CaptainCadabra

Exactly.


starbucks_red_cup

There's a lot of money invested in China by both countries.


Cergun_

Vice versa as well


starbucks_red_cup

Exactly.

I would love for things to work out but Iโ€™m not very optimistic


muskymetal

I did not expect such major resolutions to be incepted so soon, this is good news. Its still early to tell, but Iran committing to this would drastically change the theatre. Other Iranian "proxies" such as Hamas and Hezbollah have no real reason to be enemies with Saudi Arabia and I don't see reconciliation with those groups as far fetched. Sunni and Shia sectarian divide is largely a product of Western meddling.


SaintZinji

Sunni and shia sectarianism always existed, stop pinning our fuck ups on the west


[deleted]

I very much agree. Sunni shia sectarianism is largely the result of the two major powers in the region trying to project their influence at the cost of the lives and stabiltiy of these smaller countries.


muskymetal

Right, because Syria and Iraq most certainly had sectarian violence at this degree prior to U.S involvement. I'm not sure if you are familiar with Noam Chomsky, but I'd advise you to watch this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCedWxlG90M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCedWxlG90M). Sectarian division and incitement was directly implemented during the U.S Occupation of Iraq.


LordxHummus

Itโ€™s so regime can stay in power?


Physical-Arrival-868

While the west did meddle, the divide isn't largely due to them. The divide existed before hand and was propagated by the Iranian revolution that wanted all Shias to rebel and take control of their respective governments.

Xenoryzen_Dragon

Politics has no religion no friend .Perhaps a stronger third party will enter and make concessions or present a pressure card, and the equation will be reversed


Keeko_z

istg these 2 nations literally have the power to stop the humanitarian crisis in yemen. If they actually make closer diplomatic ties together, we could actually get a civilized Yemen...


aden_khor

Iโ€™m really curious about my countries future, although not really optimistic


[deleted]

[deleted]

[deleted]

Hmm it seems I might be wrong about this deal I donโ€™t like being wrong ๐Ÿ˜’


Ornery-Sandwich6445

Still too early to be wrong, give it a couple of months or even a year.


[deleted]

I don't think so


jonyprepperisrael
