The Speaker of the House of Representatives Mrs Anita Demetriou received today the Ambassador of the State of Kuwait to Cyprus Mr Waleed Ahmad Al-Kandari, on the occasion of the completion of his mandate in Cyprus.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives thanked Mr. Kandari for his significant contribution to the further deepening of Cyprus-Kuwait relations, his excellent cooperation with the House of Representatives and the promotion of dialogue and exchanges between the two countries in the parliamentary framework, stressing that Cyprus and Kuwait are linked by friendly ties, not only at the level of states but also of peoples.
Ms Demetriou also expressed her sincere appreciation for Kuwait's principled position and firm support for the Cyprus problem. Mr. Kandari said that the two countries have been invaded and remain committed to the principles of international law. He stressed that his country will continue to support efforts to resolve the Cyprus problem on the basis of the relevant UN resolutions, underlining that for Kuwait, the invasion of one state on the territory of another is a red line.
