President Donald Trump has spoken separately with several leaders of nations in the Arabian Gulf region and addressed ongoing disputes between Qatar and some of its Arab neighbors.
The White House says Trump urged unity and reiterated the importance of stopping terrorist financing and discrediting extremist ideology.
Trump spoke Sunday night with The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, and Amir Tamin bin Hamad Al Thani of Qatar.
The White House says Trump underscored that unity in the region is critical to accomplishing the Riyadh Summit's goals of defeating terrorism and promoting regional stability.
A group of Arab nations has accused Qatar of supporting Muslim extremists, among other things.
