Kuwait's Deputy Premier and Interior Minister Sheikh Mohammad Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Sabah said that the emergency meeting for GCC interior ministers highlighted the "intricacy and danger at the current stage," and the need to face this terrorism through coordination. Gulf states are aware of the "conspiracies, sedition and terrorist acts being planned against them, which need to be tackled in a decisive, forceful, prepared and coordinated manner," he told KUNA after attending these talks. The need "to work to support and shield our (Gulf) society from deviant and extremist ideologies which target our youth," was another point the minister stressed on.
