    Arab Parliament Speaker Adel bin Abdulrahman Al-Asoumi has met with World Bank President Ajay Banga in Washington, D.C. to discuss ways to strengthen relations and the development of Arab countries.


    Al-Asoumi said that developing the human capital is an important, and urgent, priority for Arab countries, and a foremost concern for both the Arab Parliament and the World Bank. It is the basis for joint work toward development.


    In a statement issued today, the General Secretariat of the Arab Parliament in Cairo said that Al-Asoumi indicated, at the meeting, that Arab countries have great development needs in many areas where the World Bank plays an important role, noting that the difficult humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip requires urgent intervention in many areas of development, notably health and education. A number of constructive proposals were also given for consideration by the World Bank.
