Saudi Arabia's interior minister urged Gulf states on Wednesday to move beyond reacting to security incidents and to prepare for adversity in advance, saying any threat to a member of the Gulf Cooperation Council was a threat to the entire bloc.
Prince Abdulaziz bin Saud bin Naif was speaking at the GCC interior ministers' 43rd meeting in Bahrain, according to the Saudi Press Agency. He called for comprehensive plans and closer coordination to address challenges arising from regional and international developments.
