| Saudi Ambassador to Pakistan Ali Awadh Asseri said on Tuesday he was confident that the two countries would jointly prevail in their war against terrorism. "Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are closely coordinating their efforts in the global war against terrorism through their interior ministries and security agencies. We will prevail one day because the Saudi government is succeeding every day in its war on terrorism," said Mr Asseri. He was addressing a press conference on Tuesday for the 74th National Day of the Royal Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is on Thursday. "It heartens me to convey to the leadership and the people of Pakistan the deep-rooted love and affection that the leadership and the people of Saudi Arabia feel for them," he said. Denying a connection between Islam and terrorism, he said terror incidents in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia and in other Muslim countries prove that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism. |
