KEY POINTS
The United States continues to have strong relations with Saudi
Arabia and we are pleased with their cooperation in the ongoing war
against terrorism, particularly since September 11th.
As with many countries around the world, Saudi Arabia must deal
with the fact that it has terrorists inside its country, whose presence
is as much a threat to Saudi Arabia as it is to Americans and others
who live and work there.
The terrorist bombings this week killed not just Americans, but
also citizens of other countries.
The U.S. is constantly working with nations around the world to
urge them to focus on the threat or terrorism and to determine what can
be done to combat the threat.
