On the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, I was honored to meet with H.E. Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the Arab League. Our discussion underscored the deep importance of the Arab League as a vital partner in charting a new and more hopeful course for the Middle East.
The United States remains deeply committed to working hand in hand with the Arab League, building on decades of dialogue and cooperation to promote stability, prosperity, and peace across the region. Together, we seek to foster constructive engagement, address shared challenges, and support initiatives that empower the people of the Middle East with greater opportunity and security.
At this pivotal moment, partnership is not only a diplomatic necessity but also a moral responsibility. The Arab League’s role in shaping regional consensus, amplifying the voice of its member states, and advancing collective solutions is indispensable. The U.S. is grateful for this enduring collaboration, and we look forward to strengthening it in the years ahead.
