TT, US committed to fighting terrorism

Dillon said while violent extremism is not a local issue, TT is treating with the concern of some citizens travelling to areas of conflict and eventually returning home. The minister said Government is addressing this matter through a combination of legislative framework and operations. Attorney General Faris Al-Rawi, who was present at the meeting, said TT continues to address border management and maritime security in the context of its geography.

Thomas III recognised the need for TT and the US to synchronise their efforts, especially to deal with the threat posed by the Islamic State terrorist group.
