Dubai: In a surprise move, King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz of Saudi Arabia told fellow Gulf leaders who are meeting in Riyadh to establish a Gulf Union to take on "the challenges that threaten our nations, security and stability."

"I ask you today to move from a stage of cooperation to a stage of union in a single entity," Abdullah said at the opening session of a Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) summit yesterday. He warned the bloc's security was being targeted, without elaborating.
