US President Barack Obama  concluding a meeting with Saudi Arabia’s King Salman bin Abdulaziz al-Saud at the G20 summit at the  Turkish Mediterranean resort of Antalya yesterday. World leaders raised the alarm over an escalating international movement of “foreign terrorist fighters” in a draft statement drawn up at the summit after the Paris assaults claimed by Islamic State militants. Heads of the Group of 20 top world economies said they would share intelligence, track border crossings and boost aviation security to prevent international travel by “terrorists”. “We are concerned over the acute and growing flow of foreign terrorist fighters and the threat it poses for all states,” the G20 chiefs said in a draft statement obtained by AFP a day ahead of its formal adoption at their meeting.
