Iran's Arab neighbours want assurances nuclear deal not against them

Iran's Arab neighbours, deeply worried about Iran's nuclear programme, want assurances that Tehran's deal with world powers will indeed enhance regional security, Bahrain's interior minister said on Thursday. U.S.-allied Gulf Arab states, led by top oil exporter Saudi Arabia, have cautiously welcomed the November 24 interim accord as a step towards curbing what they fear is a secret Iranian programme to develop nuclear weapons, a charge Tehran denies.
