We are working closely with international partners, including Gulf countries, to tackle
the shared threat posed by ISIL. UK Ministers and officials have had a number of discussions
recently with Gulf partners about coalition action against ISIL. The Prime Minister
discussed the issue with His Majesty, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia on 8 October.
The Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend
the Member for Runnymede and Weybridge discussed it with his Gulf counterparts on
14 October at the UK-GCC Foreign Ministers meeting in Kuwait. I discussed it with
the Saudi Arabian ambassador earlier this month and with the UAE Minister of State
for Foreign Affairs on 21 October.
