On the summit, called by US President Barack Obama, on the leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Arab States, to be held at Camp David resort in next spring, the Ambassador said: "I think that the idea behind the summit is to consult closely and discuss means to strengthen military and security cooperation and means to meet the challenges in front of our countries in the region, including Iranian interference in the affairs of other countries. " He continued saying, "The US-GCC relations are very strong and strategic and we have many programs in the military and security fields and we have cooperation in many areas such as defense systems against ballistic missiles and military programs. I think that the initiative behind the summit lies in the discussion to further strengthening these relations. " On the Framework Agreement on Iran's nuclear program agreement, he said," We hope that there will be an agreement to be based on the principles set by the US government that any agreement will prevent Iran from obtaining the nuclear bomb". --SPA 14:11 LOCAL TIME 11:11 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
