Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - Senate President Faisal Al-Fayez Thursday met with head of Young Global Leaders Forum, Jacob Garcia and discussed with him challenges facing youth, and the importance of finding ways that protect them so that youth are not left alone to become a prey of terrorism and extremism.
