Arab terrorism fighting conference concluded deliberations in Tunisia

The third Arab congress for officials for fighting drugs on Tuesday concluded its deliberations by issuing several key recommendations aiming at strengthening cooperation among the Arab states to this effect.

A statement released by the general secretariat of the council of the Arab ministers of the interior to the conference which was held for two days and was attended by officials concerned in terrorism fighting in various Arab states, had discussed topics listed on the meeting's agenda in light of studies prepared in this field.

In their recommendations, the conferees underlined the importance of immunizing the Arab citizen against suspicious intellectual trends, through working to implant " true Islamic conceptions and clinging to Arab educational and moral values which give up violence and terrorism and call for honoring human rights."

The conferees also recommended the adoption of an effective system for monitoring borders so as to prevent the leakage of terrorists or smuggling weapons and explosives.

The conference, on the other hand, stressed the importance of using modern technology in the area of protecting important figures and establishments and called for strengthening the relations between the security forces and the citizen to counteract any terrorist acts.
