CAIRO: Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa held official talks with Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Mishal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah on Sunday during a state-visit, according to KUNA News Agency.
The Syrian president arrived earlier in the day accompanied by his Foreign Minister Assad al-Shibani and several high-profile Syrian officials.
Both leaders discussed bilateral ties between the two brotherly countries and ways to enhance them in all fields, the KUNA statement said.
The talks also affirmed Kuwait’s steadfast support for the unity of Syria and its sovereignty, it added. The talks also covered the latest regional and international developments.
Al-Sharaa's visit to Kuwait aims to boost bilateral ties between the two countries.
Ties between Syria and Kuwait resumed last year, witnessing a notable revival when Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Abdullah Al-Yahya visited Damascus on Dec. 30.
Since the visit, Kuwait launched the first flights of a humanitarian air bridge to Syria, to help alleviate the suffering of Syrians, according to KUNA News Agency.
Kuwait, joining other GCC member states, has underscored its unwavering support for Syria’s unity and sovereignty.
Al-Sharaa had previously visited Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates on his Gulf tour.
