The meeting was chaired by Abdullah bin Rashid Al Khalifa, Bahrain’s Ambassador to the United States, and brought together GCC ambassadors and representatives from Jordan.
The discussions were held with Brian Mast, Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, in the presence of several members of Congress. These included Gregory Meeks, Mike Lawler, Brad Sherman, as well as Joe Wilson and Seth Moulton, members of the House Armed Services Committee.
The meeting focused on the latest regional developments, particularly in light of recent Iranian attacks targeting GCC countries and Jordan.
Participants reaffirmed that the security of GCC member states is interconnected and indivisible, based on the Council’s charter and its joint defense frameworks.
They also highlighted the strong cooperation between the GCC and the United States, stressing the importance of continued coordination and joint efforts to address current challenges. Such collaboration, they noted, is essential to enhancing regional security and stability, safeguarding maritime navigation, ensuring the uninterrupted flow of global trade, and maintaining stability in energy markets.
The participants further emphasized the need for sustained coordination with the United States and international partners to tackle security threats, strengthen the protection of vital infrastructure, and support both regional and global stability.
