The foreign ministry said on Friday the government ‘welcomes’ and ‘salutes’ the signing of Al Ula Declaration which brought about the much-awaited reconciliation and reunion of brotherly countries in the Gulf Region.
Saudi Arabia and Qatar have not seen eye to eye for more than three years which has thrown the Gulf region into uncertainty.
But a declaration signed between Saudi Arabia and its allies and Qatar on January 5 will now surely bring greater security to the region.
According to the Gambia government through the ministry of foreign affairs, it is its the wish that the signed “Al Ula Declaration will heal the rift and consolidate fraternity and solidarity which will yield stability in the Gulf Region”
“The Government of The Gambia believes that the development will offer the brothers the opportunity to jointly face and surmount challenges for a better future.
“The Government of The Gambia seized this opportunity to commend all member states for their commitment, efforts and role played in resolving the crisis and bringing about normalcy to the Gulf Region,” the foreign ministry said in a statement.
