Prince Naif bin Abdulaziz, the Minister of Interior of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Honorary Chairman of the Arab Interior Ministers Council, denied Tunisian press reports that he walked out of the conference room while Libya's Interior Minister was addressing the 22nd session of the Arab Interior Ministers Council which was held in Tunis. In a statement to the Tunisian newspaper of Alsabah (morning), which was quoted by the Saudi Press Agency before His Royal Highness's departure from Tunisia, Prince Naif said "Yes, I left the room but for a private reason", adding that "By coincidence, I came out of the room at the same time and I expected to come back and catch him still talking but, regrettably, I couldn't as the speech seems to be a short one. This is the fact".
