IMCTC English

Saudi Arabia took the initiative to establish the Islamic Military Counter-Terrorism Coalition (IMCTC). HRH Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince, Prime Minister, announced the establishment of IMCTC in December, 2015, in order to consolidate Muslim countries’ efforts in countering terrorism.

The Chiefs of Staff of Muslim countries affirmed, in their inaugural meeting, in March 2016, their determination to intensify their efforts to counter-terrorism through joint action, based on each country’s capabilities and willingness to participate in the initiatives or programs, within IMCTC framework, in accordance with each country’s policies and regulations and without comprising the sovereignty of IMCTC member countries. Meanwhile, they stressed the importance of activating the launch of IMCTC during the meeting of member countries’ Defense Ministers.
