Informed Gulf sources said yesterday in Riyadh that the six Gulf Cooperation Council states agreed to specify November 28 as the date for convening the coming Gulf summit in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, for three days.

The Gulf sources added that convening the summit on this date is unlike what was previously to take place regarding convening it in December to coincide with Ramadan.

The sources also added that the foreign ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council will convene a meeting in Riyadh on November 6 - 7 to prepare for the summit's files as well as to convene a second meeting one day before the summit to prepare the agenda.
