Saudi foreign minister confers with American- Arab council's chief

The Saudi foreign minister prince Saud al-Faisal on Tuesday evening in Riyadh met with the chairman of The National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations John Duke Anthony and members of the accompanying delegation.

Anthony arrived in Riyadh on Tuesday in a visit to Saudi Arabia which lasts for several days.

This US organization describes its mission as " To educate Americans about Arab countries, the Middle East, and the Islamic world through leadership development, people-to-people programs, lectures, publications, and grassroots outreach."

"The National Council is not a membership organization. Its supporters are primarily individuals and institutions in the United States and the Arab world who have hosted or participated in one of the National Council's programs," the organizations says.
