US officials said Kerry will reassure regional officials that a deal with Tehran will not allow Iran to produce a nuclear bomb and will not mean US complacency on broader security matters.

Kerry will see the new Saudi monarch, King Salman, and meet separately with the foreign ministers of the members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) – Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates…………..

Kerry will also discuss the deteriorating conditions in Syria and the fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group there and in Iraq.

US officials said Kerry would stress that Washington does not see a military solution to the conflict in Syria, but also does not think a political solution is possible while Syrian President Bashar al-Assad remains in power. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/03/kerry-riyadh-calm-gulf-fears-iran-nuclear-deal-150305063306644.html
