Kuwait’s Ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Sabah Nasser Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, affirmed on Wednesday that Kuwaiti-Saudi relations offer a unique model of a shared destiny forged by history, cemented by steadfast positions, and further built upon by the leaderships of both countries to enhance their security, stability, and prosperity.
In a statement to the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) on the occasion of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s National Day, Ambassador Al-Sabah noted that historical records bear firm evidence of the depth of this relationship, pointing out that the Founding King, Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud, launched his historic campaign to reclaim Riyadh from Kuwait, marking the beginning of the process of unifying the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
He added that history embodied the same meaning decades later when the late Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, returned to Kuwait from Saudi Arabia following the liberation of Kuwait from the brutal Iraqi invasion in 1991.
He clarified that these two milestones encapsulate the uniqueness of the relationship between the two countries and highlight a firm reality: that the security and destiny of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia are one, and that what binds them transcends geographical boundaries to include historical, social ties, and shared interests inherited across generations.
He noted that the Kingdom’s celebration of its National Day is a cherished occasion for Kuwait and its people, given the Kingdom’s profound historical and strategic significance to Kuwait, and he praised the comprehensive developmental renaissance and rapid achievements witnessed in various fields.
Ambassador Al-Sabah pointed out that this year’s Saudi National Day holds a special character, particularly as it coincides with the launch of the 27th Gulf Cup in the Kingdom, where Gulf citizens celebrate both the Gulf sports festival and the Saudi National Day simultaneously.
On this occasion, he extended his highest congratulations to Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, and to the government and people of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, wishing the Kingdom continued security, stability, progress, and prosperity, and further development and growth for Kuwaiti-Saudi relations.
