Kuwait City (IINA) - Terror acts and extremism aim to divide Muslim world, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir said on Wednesday at the conference of Organization of Islamic Cooperation in Kuwait.
“We have been committed to confronting the challenges of extremism and violence,” Al-Jubeir said, Al Arabiya News channel reported.
“Terrorism, extremism and sectarianism aim to divide the Muslim world,” he added, citing the current conflict in Yemen as a “reflection of the suffering of the global Muslim community.”
Opening the conference, Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah said: “We must take a serious stand on the sectarian malady that has been shaking the structure of our nation. This fanaticism is the most dangerous to the existence of our nation ... We are all losers in this conflict, and the winner is the one who wants to inflame this destructive strife for own objectives.”
On the Syrian crisis, Sheikh Sabah said the four-year-long war could “only be solved through diplomatic channels” as the humanitarian crisis escalates. Over 50 foreign ministers are attending the May 27-28 OIC meeting to form Islamic world’s strategy on combatting terrorism, violent extremism and hate speech in a meeting.
