Iraqi’s ambassador to Saudi Arabia reviewed the work of the global anti-terror center in Riyadh on Wednesday.
Abdul Sattar Al-Janabi toured the Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology, known as Etidal, which is based in Riyadh.
He was told of the strategies and efforts of Etidal in confronting and combating extremist ideology.
He was briefed by Mansour Alshammari, the secretary-general of the center, on the mechanism for monitoring, analysing, and dismantling extremist discourses.
Al-Janabi said: “The Kingdom has established this important center to be the first important imprint in the Middle East to spread the ideology of moderation against extremism, which has claimed the lives of many of our children and affected our economy and our future. I wish the Kingdom continued stability and progress.”
He said the center “restores our confidence in ourselves and puts moderate thought as a primary goal in our daily lives.”
