Iran and Saudi Arabia, as two important regional players, were not unaffected by these changes in US power and the situation of this country in the structure of the international system.

The question that arises in this regard is what effects the change in the position of the United States in the structure of the international system after 9/11 has had on the security order in the Middle East and, consequently, on the relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia.

The required information has been collected by library method and referring to valid internet sources. Manuscript profile
