(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) The Arab leaders issued the final communique at the end of their 26th summit that was concluded here today.
The Arab leaders have agreed in principle to form a joint military force to address growing Arab challenges and threats. The resolution came following two-day meetings that focused on Yemen, Libya, Syria and terrorism.
Under the resolution, it is up to each Arab country to join the joint military force, which will be mainly tasked with swift military intervention in case an Arab League member state comes under threats, including terrorist ones. Arab leaders asked Secretary-General of the Arab League Nabil Al-Araby to meet with Arab chiefs of staff within one month to discuss the details of the joint force.
The Arab leaders have re-affirmed unwavering support for the UAE's full sovereignty on the three Gulf islands; Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa.
The Arab leaders declared backing for all measures and peaceful means Abu Dhabi may resort to restore its sovereignty on the three occupied islands.
