According to WAM: “In a statement on Wednesday, Dr. Al-Salami said that during the session, members of the Arab Parliament – representing various groups in Arab society – will issue a resolution to reflect the “pulse of the Arab street”, following this “dangerous” decision by the US administration.”
Dr. Al-Salami also said the decision is “a flagrant challenge to all international conventions and resolutions, a threat to international peace and security, and provokes the sentiments of Arabs, Muslims and the international community, alike.”
