Situation between these two countries is getting intense as Saudi Arabia clarified that they are not talking about this matter and their decisions are final. Justin Trudeau tired to mediate the matter but in the reply Saudi Arabia said that there is no way to mediate this matter. This is an ongoing tensed situation between these two governments which will take its new toll real soon.
