“We want to be friends with all regional countries. Out mutual enemy is outside the Middle East… I have no problem to meet with Saudi Arabia’s oil minister. China has pulled out of developing the phase 11 of the South Pars field and Petropars will carry out the job,” Zanganeh said, the ministry’s SHANA website reported.
