The Daily Telegraph (Australian) website reports today (September 20, 2011) that Saudi Arabia will donate $10 million for a new counter-terrorism center at United Nations headquarters in New York City.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told UN member states today, "What I see here today is the start of a new era in counter-terrorism cooperation. States recognize that they cannot go it alone."
French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said, "No population, no state can consider itself permanently immune to the threat of terrorism."
Juppe added, "The fight against terrorism is not about one country fighting another. Democracy is waging a war against indiscriminate and craven violence, wherever it originates."
