West.

By Shukhrat Khakimov

President Obama in Saudi Arabia. He makes a visit to the East, to opening a mission to write a
new chapter on Islam and the West. Obama's goals of opening what speechwriter Ben Rhodes
called "a new chapter between the United States and the Muslim world". U.S. President met with
the King of Saudi Arabia. AP write - Obama also discussed with King Abdullah on a range of
related issues, such as peace between the long-feuding Israelis and Palestinians, Iran's
suspected efforts to build a nuclear President Obama in Saudi Arabia. "In his speech, Obama
does not intend to make new policy - but to frame it differently". By stressing both U.S. respect for
Muslims and the need for all sides, including Washington, to make changes, the president hopes
to start setting relations between the US and the Muslim world down a more constructive path
even while some disagreements persist. This dialogue can be truly historic. Open a new door in
the development of the West and the Muslim world. This is important now.
One of the major problems of the modern world remains the problem of religious and national
xenophobia, which tends to develop, which is a serious obstacle to the globalization processes
and could lead to serious political, economic and civilizational conflicts. To resolve this problem,
build and develop the dialogue between different civilizations. A special place in this process is
the inter-religious dialogue, as in spite of the development of secular trends in the modern world,
religion continues to play a greater role in shaping a world view of people. Achieving mutual
understanding between different religious worldviews may have, that all of their basic tenets are
based on common values, recognized by all civilizations. This is especially true for Muslims and
Christians.

The dialogue between the West and the Muslim world at the present stage is the most important.
There are many problems that need to discuss joint efforts. First. This is a problem of
international terrorism. The dialogue will help identify the true origins and causes of terrorism
under religious slogans to express their position in relation to these negative aspects. This
dialogue should not limit itself to a meeting of Heads of State. Dialogue is necessary between the
faiths at the local level. In each individual country. Important role played by the practice of
dialogue and the elimination of xenophobia. The thing is that in Europe and America, live large
colony of immigrants from Muslim countries and regions. In this regard, there is often mutual
hostility between the indigenous people and immigrants from the east. The problem is
compounded by the fact that they belong to different cultural and civilizational layers, which in no
small measure shaped by the Christian and Islamic religions. Although with it should be noted
that often, many customs of different peoples do not have a direct relationship to these religions.
Thus, the practice of dialogue between representatives of these faiths can certainly help the
understanding between different communities within the country and help create stability. The
practice of interfaith dialogue can also play a big role in addressing the various stereotypes and
suspicion of people against each other. The thing is that as a result of direct contact, the parties
may present arguments in relation to other evidence of insolvency of any stereotypes that have
evolved over many centuries.
