They will also discuss the developments of the region and their effects on the present and future of a number of states and the region as a whole.
What adds to the importance of the Emir of Kuwait’s visit to the Sultanate and the talks he will have with HM the Sultan is the fact that both leaders have firm believe in peace and the need to solve all disputes through peaceful means, constructive dialogue and abidance by international laws. Neither leader advocates the use of military intervention in the region or beyond.
