The conference, to take place at the Arab League headquarters on February 23-24, will discuss threats to regional security and stability, said Mohamed Ibrahim Shaker, head of the council.
The conference will also discuss nuclear non-proliferation and the repercussions of the inability to put into effect the UN resolution on setting up a nuclear-free area.
