Kuwait’s 35th New Government Sworn in

Members of the 35th government were sworn in in front of Kuwait ruler Emir Shaikh Sabah al-Sabah who told them they must remain united during these challenging times for the country.

“This means that our responsibilities are bigger and that we must intensify our efforts to work hard and productively to achieve the anticipated objectives for the country and fulfil the aspirations of Kuwaitis.”
