With countries struggling to crackdown on ISIS - such as the efforts of Saudi Arabia that were covered in this HNGN article - the U.S.-led anti-ISIS coalition has scheduled an important meeting among its senior officials on Quebec, Canada, this Thursday.
The closed-door meeting will include the primary personalities in the anti-ISIS effort, including retired U.S. General John Allen, who was personally appointed by U.S. President Barack Obama to coordinate with the international effort to subdue the terror group, reports CTV News.
The meeting will probably include discussions about how the anti-ISIS coalition can improve the effectiveness of its operations. Other aspects of the fight against ISIS, such as military and political implications, will also be discussed.
The fight against ISIS has escalated as of late, with regular airstrikes from the United States and Canada striking specified targets in Iraq and Syria. The two Western nations are also in the process of training Iraqi fighters, according to Reuters.
The fight against ISIS is not without its roadblocks, however, with Western powers stating that their efforts alone cannot defeat the extremist group and emphasizing that Iraq must do more for the cause. Iraq's prime minister, on the other hand, has stated that the anti-ISIS coalition has not done enough to fully tackle the threat posed by the Islamic State.
About 20 nations will be participating in the Small Group Meeting on Thursday, including Australia, Bahrain, Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
