User:Pahlevun/Saudi support for Iraq during the Iran–Iraq War

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saudi support for Iraq during the Iran–Iraq War consisted of $20 billion of funding between September 1980 and May 1982.[1]

Trita Parsi writes,[1] that

Between September 1980 and spring 1982, Saudi Arabia - which was particularly fearful of an Iranian victory and the boost that it would give to Iran's ideological zeal - provided Iraq with $1 billion per month.
