US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke at the opening of the US-Gulf Security Formum saying the US will back its regional Arab allies against threats from Iran. She also said the meeting would include discussion about the events in Syria, political progress in Gulf countries, Iran's nuclear program, "and curbing its interference in the affairs of its neighbors."
The Gulf Arab nations have accused Iran of backing violent protests in Bahrain and interfering with domestic issues in their own countries.
