He said now it was the OIC’s responsibility to step forward for making Saudi Arabia’s peace initiative a real success and take into confidence the other countries of the region for resolving all issues through peaceful moves.He said primarily it was the responsibility of the Muslim rulers to sit together and find out the ways to end bilateral irritants and foil the plans of enemies of the Ummah.
