U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ), Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, released the following statement today on the formation of a 34-Muslim nation counterterrorism alliance: The fact that senior Administration officials were totally unaware of plans to form a counterterrorism alliance by 34 Muslim nations reflects the diminishing influence of the United States and the erosion of confidence of our closest Arab partners in Americas leadership under this Administration. This alliance is a potentially consequential development in the global fight against terrorism, and I commend Saudi Arabias leadership in bringing this group together. After years of strategic drift in the Middle East, I urge the Administration to offer its full support to this alliance and renew efforts to integrate Sunni Arab nations into a comprehensive strategy to destroy ISIL and other terrorist groups. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
