US Embassy: Committed to Gulf Security, "Then and Now"

The U.S. Embassy in Kuwait posted on its official Instagram account today, reaffirming the United States’ continued commitment to the security and stability of the Gulf region, while recalling the stance of former U.S. President George H.W. Bush following Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait in 1990.

The post featured an image of the American and Kuwaiti flags alongside a quote from President George H.W. Bush: “We are committed to the security and stability of the Gulf,” a statement he made on August 8, 1990, just days after Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait.

This post comes amid the close ties between Kuwait and the United States, and their ongoing cooperation in political, defense, and security fields, reflecting both sides’ dedication to enhancing regional security and stability.
