Muscat summit studies a plan to withstand the distortion campaign of Arab and Muslims image

The Minister of information in the United Arab Emirates UAE Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed al-Nahyan said he had submitted during the meeting of the foreign ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council GCC in Muscat a comprehensive media strategic plan and a report to withstand the campaign aiming at distorting the image of Islam in the western mass media.

The UAE minister who presided over the media committee in charge of drawing a strategy for foreign moves stemmed from the 12th meeting of the GCC's information ministers that the said plan will be submitted to the leaders of the GCC during Muscat summit.

The UAE minister explained that this plan is addressed to western communities and not limited to politicians, noting that it is of long - term objectives rather a reaction to the incidents of September 11.
