Nouakchott – Mauritanian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation Isselkou Ould Ahmed Izid Bih expressed satisfaction with the outcome of the 27th Arab League Summit held in Nouakchott.
“The Nouakchott Summit has agreed to take serious steps with regards to the Arab world’s future, and given that Mauritania is in good terms with all Arab countries, tackling current issues objectively won’t be difficult. We expect to see cooperation and coordination from the Arab world in order to move to a better stage,” replied Izid Bih to a question on the phase in the aftermath of the Arab summit.
Speaking on regional interferences, Asharq Al-Awsat asked the minister about his vision over the Iranian threats and his answer was: “Iran needs to adopt the good neighborhood policy with Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and UAE along with the rest of Arab World. We bet that Arabs are fully aware that solving problems in a peaceful way and through dialogue is for the countries’ own good.”
