The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has confirmed it will maintain its commitment to the UN Programme of Action to combat the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons, pointing at the same time to the Kingdom's efforts in the fight against the smuggling of weapons by the seizure of terrorist cells related to Iran, which smuggled weapons and explosives into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Kuwait. This came in the Kingdom's speech before First Committee of the UN General Assembly in the71st special session of conventional weapons, which was delivered yesterday by Deputy Permanent Representative of Saudi delegation to the United Nations, Counselor Saad bin Abdullah Al-Saad. He said that the Kingdom expresses deep concern at the extremely dangerous humanitarian, economic and social effects of illicit trafficking operations in small arms and light weapons, and calls on the international community to make every effort to cooperate to address this dangerous phenomenon, as it also emphasizes its ongoing commitment to the UN Programme of Action to Prevent, Combat and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons. --More
