‘Saudi-US Security Cooperation Strong’

SAUDI GAZETTE: JEDDAH – Saudi Arabia and US were cooperating closely on security, and both shared a deep concern about militant activities in Yemen, said US Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano here Monday.

“The security coordination is very strong with Saudi Arabia,” she said after meetings with King Abdullah, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, and senior officials.

“We all share a concern about terrorist activity emanating from Yemen,” Napolitano said.

Speaking at the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (JCCI) Napolitano said that she met Saudi officials to discuss security issues and US visas for Saudi students, but that she did not discuss terror financing. >>> Jassim Alghamdi | Tuesday, June 01, 2010
