(21 Apr 2016) LEAD-IN:
Morocco's king has been meeting with leaders from the Gulf Cooperation Council in Saudi Arabia.
The summit discussed security threats and officials were keen to emphasise the positive relationship between Morocco and the region.
STORY-LINE:
King Mohammad VI of Morocco is in Riyadh for a meeting with the leaders of the Gulf states.
Security in the region is top of the agenda for the GCC-Morocco summit.
The Moroccan monarch and Saudi Arabia's King Salman Bin Abdulaziz's government ministers are keen to stress the strong ties they have built.
After the meeting, Adel Al-Jubair, Saudi Foreign Minister, praises Morocco's support for the Saudi-led military campaign in Yemen and says its ally was "among the first countries" to contribute to an Islamic anti-extremism coalition.
"I do not remember any case where Morocco was not supportive and this indicates the strong relations and the strategic relations between us," he says.
His Moroccan counterpart Salaheddine Mezouar is equally as positive.
"The last five years were enough to build up the foundations of the strategic relations and partnership," he says.
"Morocco and the Gulf States remain a unified bloc."
The meeting came ahead of President Barack Obama's visit to Saudi Arabia to meet with with officials from six Arab nations to discuss regional security issues in the Persian Gulf.
