The Saudi Foreign Minister made the remarks at the World Economic Forum in Davos, adding that he was glad the region has "avoided any escalation" with Iran, and "many countries" have offered to mediate talks with Tehran.
Iran has already taken three separate calibrated steps away from the deal and has warned it will take a fourth in November unless the US lifts economic sanctions.
Secretary of State Pompeo said the US would not hesitate to hit back hard against Iran's 'kleptocratic regime' if it came under attack, but pledged that any action would be consistent with the rule of law.
As for the regional and international issues, their talks will focus on the latest developments on the Iranian nuclear programme, the Syrian settlement, developments in the Gulf area, among others.
Zarif once again reiterated the Islamic Republic’s policy for supporting the Yemeni people, saying, “Iran will always stand by the Yemeni nation and we believe that the end of the war will first of all help the Yemeni people.”
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan is due to arrive in Iran on Saturday.
Zarif also decried the US move to form a maritime military coalition to, what it calls, "boost security in the region".
The US unilaterally withdrew from a landmark 2015 nuclear deal last year and reimposed tight restrictions.
According to reports, the tankers were struck in the same area where the US accused Iran of using naval mines to sabotage four other oil ships in an attack last month.
Zarif also denied Iran was seeking nuclear weapons after Trump said during a visit to Japan that "we're not looking for regime change (in Iran)... we're looking for no nuclear weapons".
