Cairo, Riyadh pledge cooperation as each weighs nuclear deal

CAIRO — Iran and six world powers reached a nuclear deal July 14 after more than 10 years of negotiations, an agreement that could potentially change politics in the Middle East.
The nuclear deal does not only concern Iran and the major powers, but also other states in the Middle East such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and its allies in the Gulf Cooperation Council.
