Kerry will be in Riyadh on Wednesday and Thursday to meet
with senior Saudi leaders to discuss regional security issues,
State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said. Saudi Arabia has
been leading a coalition conducting air strikes on Iran-backed
Houthi rebels in Yemen.
After Riyadh, Kerry will go to Paris to meet with foreign
ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council nations to discuss
security and other regional issues. He also will take part in
commemorations of the allied victory in World War Two and meet
with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius.
