Top diplomats from Saudi Arabia and its allies wrapped up two days of talks in Jordan's Dead Sea resort on Thursday (January 31st) on co-ordinating policy on the multiple conflicts gripping the region, AFP reported.
The closed-door meetings were a "consultation between brothers and friends", Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said in a terse statement shortly after they ended.
They were a forum "to exchange views on our regional issues and ways of co-operation to overcome regional crises", he said, without providing any details.
On Wednesday, when the six ministers held six hours of talks, Jordan's King Abdullah highlighted the "importance of co-ordination on the various issues and crises facing the region".
The talks, which also involved the foreign ministers of Bahrain, Egypt, Kuwait and the UAE, came just two weeks before a planned US-Polish conference on the Middle East.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has said the conference will look at "making sure Iran is not a destabilising influence" in the region.
The Dead Sea meeting also came amid debate over the return of Syria to the Arab League, which suspended Damascus's membership in November 2011.
Several Arab states, including Lebanon and Tunisia, have called for Syria's return.
