Gulf Arab states condemn Iran for interfering in regional affairs

The Gulf States have accused Iran of interfering in regional affairs and destabilizing them.

At a Ministerial meeting in Riyadh, GCC Foreign Ministers accused Tehran of plotting against GCC countries National security and fanning sedition and religious disputes among their citizens.

According to Reuters, the meeting also condemned "the blatant Iranian interference in Kuwait through planting spy cells on its territory."

Kuwait said on Thursday it may expel three Iranian diplomats over the spying row and withdrew its ambassador from Tehran.

Iran has denied the spying allegations and said it did not interfere in Kuwait's internal affairs.

A Kuwaiti court earlier sentenced three men - two Iranians and a Kuwaiti - to death for being part of an alleged Iranian spy ring in a case that has strained relations between Kuwait and Tehran.
