Minister of Foreign Affairs, Migration and Tunisians Abroad, Nabil Ammar, met with the Secretary General of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Ibrahim Hussein Taha. The meeting took place in the framework of the FM’s participation in the extraordinary meeting of the open-ended Executive Committee at the level of foreign ministers of the member states of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, which took place in Jeddah on Wednesday. The two sides discussed the grave situation in the Palestinian territories and its serious repercussions on the entire region in light of the continuation of the blatant Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people and the genocide and forced displacement in an unprecedented violation of international law and humanitarian law, a Foreign Ministry statement said. They also reviewed bilateral relations and expressed their satisfaction with the excellent level of cooperation between Tunisia and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation in various fields. This has led to the implementation of many cooperation programmes, in addition to “continued consultation and coordination on key regional and international issues of common interest”, according to the same statement. The Minister took the opportunity to invite the Secretary-General to pay a working visit to Tunisia, within the framework of Tunisia’s keenness and determination to further strengthen cooperation and coordination with the Organisation and its permanent readiness to work with its various agencies and institutions to achieve common goals and defend Arab and Islamic issues.
