Reasons behind Iran-Saudi rivalry
Though there was improvement in their relationship later on (one: as the oil price fell down to $10 in 1986, both economies suffered, and misery loves...; two: common enemy Iraq invaded Kuwait, and then the Persian Gulf War took place in 1991), civilities remained generally ambiguous because of many reasons. Firstly, the sectarian conflict between Shias and Sunnis added to the irritant factor between the two nations as Iran remains Shia dominated and Saudi Arabia Sunni dominated (an encouraging fact for Obama’s advisors). Secondly, Iran, as the second largest oil producer in OPEC, regularly and deliberately produces more oil than allowed in its OPEC quota, leading to worsening competition with the world’s largest oil producer, namely Saudi Arabia. Thirdly, and ironically, Saudi Arabia is non-democratic and clearly pro-America; Iran is democratic and clearly anti-America. How can Saudi Arabia rectify this situation from here on? Uh, why would they want to?!
