rooted in history. I express my thanks to and appreciation of the GCC peoples. We are part of this Gulf. Our identity is one. Their peoples are our people. It is no wonder of their sincere feelings and a great love for me. I greatly appreciate them. The sincere feelings towards me have not been expressed from GCC states only, but also from Arab and Islamic states. I appreciate these feelings which have been a source of comfort to me. I pray to Allah Almighty for continuing glory of these brotherly relations with the GCC peoples, for continuing stability, tranquility and security in our countries, and for the blessings bestowed upon us. I say to all peoples of the GCC states and peoples of Arab and Islamic countries who have expressed their feelings of friendship and brotherhood towards me what I have said to our people in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, that I am fine as long as you are fine. --More
