ISLAMABAD, Jan. 19 (Xinhua) - Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif met Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud in Riyadh on Monday and "expressed deep concern on the recent escalation of tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

The Pakistan PM will also visit Iran on Tuesday as a part of his two-nation tour which mainly aims at reducing tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

Saudi Arabia severed diplomatic relations with Iran earlier this month after a mob burnt the Saudi embassy in Tehran. The demonstrators were protesting against the execution of a Shiite cleric in Saudi Arabia.
