RIYADH, October 15 (Saudi Arabia Breaking News) - The second summit between the Gulf Cooperation Council and the European Union, scheduled for October 24 in Riyadh, has been postponed. The two sides will agree on a new date.


GCC Secretary General Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi said the decision followed continued Houthi attempts to target Saudi Arabia and civilian facilities, alongside the extended suspension of operations at King Khalid International Airport. Ensuring the safety of participating delegations was also a reason for the postponement.


Albudaiwi said the GCC and the European Union remained committed to creating the conditions needed to hold the summit and advance cooperation between their member states.
