In a statement received by the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA), the Kuwaiti Embassy in the Kingdom of Bahrain said that this came during Minister Al-Maliki’s reception of Ambassador Al-Najim. Both sides stressed the importance of continuing coordination and cooperation among GCC member states and strengthening joint efforts to address current challenges, in a manner that meets the aspirations of their peoples and brings them prosperity and development.
