INTERFERENCE IN INTERIOR AFFAIRS AND RESORTING TO PEACEFUL MEANS AS AN APPROACH FOR SOLVING DISPUTES BETWEEN THE TWO SIDES THROUGH BILATERAL NEGOTIATIONS OR SENDING THE DISPUTE TO THE INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE TRIBUNAL. IN THIS CONCERN, THE GCC COUNTRIES, AS IS THE CASE FOR THE WORLD COMMUNITY, PROFOUNDLY FEEL CONCERNED OF THE IRANIAN NUCLEAR ISSUE AND ITS EFFECT ON WORLD SECURITY AND PEACE. TO THIS END, WE BELIEVE THAT THE IDEAL WAY TO GET RID OF THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS PROBLEM REMAINS IN TAKING THE PATH OF DIALOGUE AND NEGOTIATIONS, THE COMMITMENT OF IRAN TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY AGENCY, SERIOUS WORK TO MAKE THE MIDDLE EAST, INCLUDING THE GULF REGION, A MASS DESTRUCTION WEAPONS FREE AND RECOGNITION OF THE RIGHT OF THE REGION'S COUNTRIES TO OBTAIN EXPERIENCE IN THE NUCLEAR FIELD. ON IRAQ, THE GCC COUNTRIES CONFIRM THEIR SUPPORT FOR THE UNITY OF IRAQ, THE INTEGRITY OF ITS TERRITORIES, SUPPORT FOR THE IRAQI GOVERNMENT TO BRING ABOUT PEACE AND STABILITY IN THE COUNTRY, NON-INTERFERENCE IN ITS INTERNAL AFFAIRS AND DEPLOYMENT OF ITS SOVEREIGNTY OVER ALL ITS TERRITORIES, PRINCE SAUD SAID. HE POINTED TO THE MEASURES TAKEN BY THE GCC MEMBER STATES IN THE FIELD OF COMBATING TERRORISM, CONFIRMING THAT THE FINAL RESULT COULD NOT BE SEEN WITHOUT AN INTERNATIONAL CONCERTED EFFORT TO WIPE OUT THE PHENOMENON. FOLLOWING THE SPEECH, A CLOSED-DOOR SESSION WAS HELD BY THE FOREIGN MINISTERS.
