In response to questions raised by reporters, Al-Jubeir cast light on the danger of terrorism, a nightmare shared by both Saudi Arabia and Jordan, he said citing reports that terrorist formations are being created on the Iraqi border poising direct threat to both countries. He said Saudi Arabia has voiced support for Jordan in its fight against terrorism, citing the recent Al-Kark terror incidents as well as the years-long cooperation between the two countries in this field aiming to root-out its finance, and confront its deviated thought leading to extremism and terrorism. On the border situation in Iraq, he said Saudi Arabia and Jordan are keen to monitor the threats emerging from there as correct information is basic for fighting terrorism. On the Popular Mobilization militia in Iraq, he said that it was a mere sect which has committed genocide in Iraq, led by an Iranian militia man called Gasem Sulaimani. We support our brothers in Iraq against terrorism in general and against Daesh in particular. And we support the unity, sovereignty and integrity of the territories of Iraq as well, he said, adding that, had Iraq is to remain a united country, there should be no room for a single armed sectarian organization on its territory. For his part, Judeh said this is the fourth time Jordan is playing host to the Arab summit, a framework seen by Jordan as important to keep the Arab leaders close to each other to consult on how to confront challenges, hoping that Arab summit meetings would become effective with real outcomes. --SPA 20:29 LOCAL TIME 17:29 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w299027
