Kuwait and Saudi Arabia share a deep and multifaceted relationship rooted in historical, geographical, and familial ties. Both countries are key members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), and their collaboration spans various sectors, including economic, security, and cultural domains.
Regular high-level meetings like this underscore their commitment to strengthening ties and addressing mutual interests, from oil production strategies to regional security issues.
This ongoing diplomacy reflects the nations’ strategic priorities in maintaining stability and prosperity in the Gulf region.
Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the UAE, presided over the fifth session of the joint high committee with Kuwait in Abu Dhabi. The Kuwaiti side was chaired by His Excellency Abdullah Ali Abdullah Al Yahya, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kuwait.
Al Nahyan affirmed, “What distinguishes UAE-Kuwait relations and their continuous development are the social and cultural bonds that unite the two brotherly peoples, including ties of brotherhood, friendship, and a shared heritage, history, and values.”
He added, “We will continue to strengthen and build upon this bond to achieve further progress and shared prosperity in various fields.”
The Deputy Prime Minister also confirmed that the UAE has always seen Kuwait as a strategic partner in all fields, and an integral part of the progress and prosperity in the Arabian Gulf and the entire region.
Non-oil bilateral trade has seen significant growth over the past years, reaching its highest levels historically in 2023, with a total value exceeding $12 billion.
