Secretary General of the Cabinet confirms Kuwait's commitment to completing implementation of all GCC Supreme Council decisions

Kuwait City, 4 Oct (KUNA) -- Kuwait’s Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, Saleh Sulaiman Al-Mulla, reaffirmed Kuwait’s full commitment to continuing efforts to complete the implementation of all resolutions issued by the Supreme Council of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), based on Kuwait’s conviction in the importance of comprehensive and integrated implementation of those resolutions to achieve their intended objectives.

This was stated in a speech delivered by Al-Mulla at the 27th meeting of the Ministerial Committee tasked with monitoring the implementation of resolutions related to joint work within the GCC, held today, Sunday, via video conferencing, in the presence of GCC Secretary General Jassem Al-Budaiwi.

Al-Mulla said that the rapid challenges and changes affecting the region and the world require GCC member states to strengthen their unity and integration and to double their efforts to accelerate the pace of joint GCC action. He added that “full implementation of joint GCC resolutions is no longer merely an administrative or organizational matter, but has become a strategic necessity to enhance the GCC’s capacity to respond to challenges, consolidate its security and stability, achieve sustainable development, and strengthen its regional and international standing.”

He emphasized that the regularity of this committee’s meetings and the constructive discussions and meticulous follow-up they feature reflect a shared commitment to implementing the Supreme Council’s resolutions, rather than merely adopting them, ensuring their tangible impact on the reality of joint GCC work and on the interests of the citizens of member states.

He noted that the GCC’s success in fulfilling its mission is measured by its ability to translate directives and decisions of the member states’ leaders into practical outcomes that GCC citizens experience in their daily lives, whether through facilitating their movement, residence, and work, enhancing their access to economic, educational, health, and social opportunities, or providing a more integrated, secure, and prosperous GCC environment.

Al-Mulla clarified that, thanks to the wise visions of the GCC member states’ leaders, the Council has been able to consolidate its position as a successful regional system and achieve numerous accomplishments and gains across various fields of joint work, including political, economic, security, social, developmental, and humanitarian areas.

He pointed out that it is everyone’s responsibility to preserve these gains, develop them, and highlight them in a manner that aligns with the aspirations of GCC citizens, strengthens their sense of GCC citizenship, and enables them to fully benefit from the resolutions, regulations, and programs adopted by member states.

Al-Mulla reiterated that Kuwait, guided by its consistent approach and firm belief in the importance of the GCC as the unifying Gulf home, will continue to support all efforts that enhance its progress, consolidate its unity and integration, and will keep working and coordinating with member states and the General Secretariat to complete the implementation of joint resolutions and overcome any challenges, thereby embodying the directives of the member states’ leaders and realizing the hopes and aspirations of their peoples.

The meeting was attended by UAE Minister of State and Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, Mariam Al-Hamadi; Bahrain’s Minister of Affairs for the Council of Shura and the Council of Representatives, Ghanem Al-Buainain; Saudi Arabia’s Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, Khaled Al-Abdulkarim; Oman’s Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, Sheikh Al-Fadh Al-Harthi; and Qatar’s Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, Hamad Al-Mahaini.
