GCC relationships and transfer them to a higher level than it was in the past, expecting that working groups may attend the summit so as to work on a number of issues such as military and security issues, technology transfer and intensifying joint military training and drills. Minister Al-Jubeir added that "Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has strategic relationships with the United States of America since 1945 and they become stronger and more firm over with time and we have no doubt in the USA's commitment to the security of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia." In response to a question about the ways of addressing Iranian interference in the region's affairs, the Minister of Foreign Affairs said "Both the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United States of America consider the best of what they can do together to confront Iran's negative activities in the Middle East and what we can do to counter what is being carried out by Iran in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Yemen. We have some ideas that we will submit on the table and I'm sure that the US administration has also some of the ideas to be submitted" at the Camp David summit." On the Yemeni affairs, the Minister of Foreign Affairs made clear that the cease-fire in Yemen for five days for the delivery of humanitarian aid in Yemen may be extended if it succeeds and Houthis and their allies wouldn't engage in hostile activities.
