In a key speech, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Naif bin Abdulaziz conveyed to the ministers the greetings and aspirations of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud to see this meeting contributing to enhancing the march of the Arab joint march, preserving the stability and progress of the Arab nation and peoples, expressing happiness to share them the opening of the 34th session of this council. He forwarded thanks and gratitude to President Albaji Gaed Al-Sabasi of Tunisia, his government and people for warm welcome and generous hospitality as well as support for the Arab interior ministers council. Thanks also go to the Tunisian interior minister Alhadi Almajdoub for the nice organization for this event to make it a success, the Crown Prince said. He gave an account on the importance of security for all nations, citing it as a base for political security, social stability and economic prosperity. In the lack of security, nothing of this takes place, he said, adding that tension and concern would otherwise remain an obstacle before the nation's progressing march, national unity, intellectual identity, civilizational march and economic resources. This is why Islam has valued high the status of security and stated it as among the most greatest graces God Almighty has bestowed on human being lives, the Crown Prince added. --More 20:12 LOCAL TIME 17:12 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w370163
