The Secretary-General of the Muslim World League (MWL) and Chairman of the Association of Muslim Scholars, Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa, said that the League does not engage in politics, but rather seeks to promote peace in the world and harmony between societies, through initiatives and programs of tangible impact.

During a meeting at the British Woolf Institute on Sunday, Al-Issa referred to the provisions of the Makkah Document, specifically the need to understand difference and diversity, and how to deal with universal inevitability. He also talked about the problems of immigration, climate change, hate speech, as well as the legitimate empowerment of women in Islam, and means to enhance awareness among Muslim and non-Muslim youth regarding the teachings of Islam.

Al-Issa highlighted the league’s efforts in these areas, adding that the organization engages in dialogue with those who want to hear the truth and understand Islamic values from different perspectives around the world.

He reiterated that the league is not a political organization, adding that any message that it conveys on political affairs is based on the values ​​of the Islamic religion that call for justice and peace.

Al-Issa pointed to the league’s initiative, which was welcomed by the United Nations Secretariat, on building bridges of understanding and peace between the East and the West.

Saudi Arabia emphasized peaceful international cooperation as a means to achieve global prosperity, stability and security, stressing the importance of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and the necessity of its full implementation.

Ambassador Abdul Mohsen bin Khothaila, the Permanent Saudi Representative to the United Nations and international organizations in Geneva, participated in the second session of the Preparatory Committee for the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference.

The ambassador called for more effective international efforts to achieve the goals and universality of the NPT, urging non-party states to join the treaty and subject all their nuclear facilities to the comprehensive safeguards of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

Affirming the right to the peaceful use of nuclear technology under Article 4 of the Treaty, he underlined the importance of adhering to the highest standards of transparency and reliability, calling on all parties to cooperate to promote peaceful use for the benefit of global development and well-being.

He stated that the responsibility for making the Middle East a nuclear-weapon-free zone lies with the international community, especially the sponsors of the 1995 resolution on the Middle East.

Bin Khothaila condemned the recent statements and threats made by a member of the Israeli government regarding the use of nuclear weapons against the Palestinians, describing his words as violations of international law and a threat to global peace and security.

He further called for intensifying cooperation between the parties to the NPT to attain positive results at the next “review conference” in 2026, with the aim of achieving a safe world free of nuclear weapons.
