Kuwait: Saudi Arabia's security is a pillar of Gulf national security and supports the stability of Yemen
The State of Kuwait affirmed its close and continuous monitoring of the ongoing political and field developments in the sisterly Republic of Yemen, reiterating its firm and unwavering support for the legitimate Yemeni government. This affirmation reflects Kuwait's principled commitment to the stability of the region. In an official statement, the Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed the necessity of preserving Yemen's unity, territorial integrity, and sovereignty, and protecting the interests of the brotherly Yemeni people to ensure the realization of their aspirations for security, stability, and comprehensive development.
Saudi Arabia's security is a red line and an integral part of Gulf security
In emphasizing their shared destiny, the statement clarified that the security of the sisterly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as well as the security of all the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states, is an essential and indispensable pillar of Gulf national security. This stance stems from the deep bonds of brotherhood, historical ties, and the principle of a shared destiny that unites the GCC states. These statements are an extension of the Gulf political doctrine, which views the security of member states as a single, interconnected entity, where any threat to any member state constitutes a direct threat to the entire Gulf system.
Praise for the Saudi and Emirati role
The Kuwaiti statement commended the responsible and wise approach adopted by both the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, praising their unwavering commitment to achieving stability in the region. Kuwait affirmed that the efforts exerted by Riyadh and Abu Dhabi reinforce the principles of good neighborliness and underscore their adherence to the values and principles of the Gulf Cooperation Council, which constitute the cornerstone of effective joint Gulf action and addressing regional challenges.
Kuwaiti diplomacy and support for peace
As part of its balanced foreign policy, the statement added that the State of Kuwait continues to support all regional and international efforts aimed at establishing a culture of dialogue and peace. Kuwait consistently calls for prioritizing diplomatic and political solutions as the best and only means to end conflicts, achieve lasting security, and enhance the prospects for peace in the Middle East region.
The Foreign Ministry concluded its statement by affirming that Kuwait will remain committed to its active and supportive role in all that serves the interests of security and development in the Arabian Gulf region, in a way that serves the interests of the brotherly peoples and consolidates the principles of joint Gulf cooperation, noting that the stability of Yemen is a key to the stability of the entire region.
