On Saturday, Kuwaiti media disclosed when and where the Gulf reconciliation will take place, Sputnik news agency reported.

According to "El Rai" Kuwaiti newspaper, the gulf reconciliation will take place during the 41st Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) summit, set to be hosted in Bahrain this month.

The newspaper added that the points of disagreement, requests, and conditions that were raised during a three-year-long rift between Qatar and its neighbouring Gulf states, will be discussed in special Gulf committees in an effort to find solutions that will be satisfactory to all and guarantee the continuity of Gulf-Arab system's cohesion.

It is worth mentioning that, on Friday, Kuwait Emir Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, expressed his great happiness and satisfaction, with the historic achievement and constructive efforts that have been made recently to solve the Gulf dispute.

“We remember, with appreciation, the constructive efforts of His Highness late Emir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who led these efforts since the first day of the dispute and who laid the foundations for that settlement so that his efforts remain in the depths of our conscience and in the pages of our history,” the Emir of Kuwait said, according to the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA ).

Sheikh Al-Sabah extended his congratulations and appreciation to the leaders of the Gulf states for achieving this historic step and thanked all those who supported the mediation efforts undertaken by the State of Kuwait.

He also thanked US President Donald Trump for his “support, which reflects the commitment of the United States of America to maintaining the security and stability of the region.”
