Kuwait government says it will be ‘last’ country to normalize ties with Israel — report

Kuwaiti government sources have said that the country will be the last to normalize relations with Israel, the Reuters news agency reports, citing the al-Qabas newspaper.

“The Kuwaiti position is consistent with its decades-old foreign policy approach in support of the Palestinian cause, as it is the premier Arab issue, and only accepting a solution if it is what the Palestinians accept,” the paper cites an official as saying.

Kuwait’s Foreign Ministry has not commented on the report.

Fellow Gulf nations Bahrain and Oman have praised the Israel-UAE normalization deal, and there are signs that they could be following suit soon.
