Erdogan's Sudden Visits
He will meet Qatar's ruler, Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani. In Kuwait, he is due to meet the new ruler, Emir Sheikh Nawaf al-Ahmad al-Sabah, and convey condolences over the death of the emir's predecessor and half brother, Emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmed, who died at 91 last week.
