Oman’s Chief of Staff of the Sultan's Armed Forces Vice Admiral Abdullah bin Khamis Al Raisi received on Monday Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition (IMCTC) Secretary-General Maj. Gen. Mohammed bin Saeed Al-Moghedi for talks on strengthening cooperation and coordination with member states.
They reviewed areas of cooperation and ways to strengthen the partnership between the IMCTC and Oman, particularly in countering terrorism, building capacities, and exchanging expertise, in support of regional and international efforts to address extremist threats and promote security, stability, and peace.
Al-Moghedi outlined the coalition's key activities, initiatives, and programs across its four domains: intellectual, media, counter-terrorist financing, and military, as well as its efforts to support member states and develop their institutional and human capabilities.
He outlined the role of the IMCTC's Initiatives Fund, its objectives, and its main areas of operation. The fund supports strategic initiatives that member states identify as priorities, enabling them to implement specialized programs and sustainable projects across various fields of counter-terrorism.
The secretary-general and his delegation visited the Maritime Security Center in Oman, where they were briefed on the center's mandate and operational responsibilities, its mechanisms for monitoring and coordinating activities at sea, and its role in strengthening maritime security and safety and addressing potential risks and threats.
