A two-day global ministerial meeting on the Middle East will begin in Warsaw on Wednesday, co-hosted by Poland and the United States.
The gathering stirred controversy after US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo billed it last month as a summit focused on confronting Iran, which he called a “destabilizing influence.”
Officials from a dozen countries are expected to attend the event, including Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates.
