Kuwait has said that it is keen to promote solidarity and unity among the member nations of the Gulf Cooperation Council, GCC. In a statement, the Kuwaiti Minister of State for Cabinet Affairs Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah Al-Sabah emphasized Kuwait's commitment to contain any rift that may befall states of the GCC. He said that it has always been Kuwait's position to always pull the fuse from any such rift that may pit one or more member of the GCC states against another. He said that the chief mitigator in such situations earlier has been the Kuwait King, Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah. He was reacting on the row between Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and UAE and Qatar. The statement is significant since Kuwait is scheduled to hold the Arab Summit on March 25-26.
