The prime minister praised Kuwaiti efforts in pushing ahead growth and development in Bahrain and in promoting good ties among GCC member states.
He endorsed strongly the imperative to establish joint ventures between the two countries and to activate existent bilateral agreements.
Furthermore, he looked forward to seeing the ideas propounded at the joint committee meeting come to light as the two nations forge ahead in their close and firm relations.
