LONDON, March 18 (KUNA) -- Kuwaiti Ambassador to the UK Khaled Al-Duwaisan
held a seminar, late Saturday, under the slogan of "The European Union and the
Arab Spring."
The event was held at the ambassador's house where he threw a dinner on the
honor of Minister of State responsible for European issues and NATO David
Lidington and a number of British parliament members, Arab ambassadors and
senior academic and journalists.
"A positive and constructive discussion on the latest developments in the
Middle East took place," Al-Duwaisan said when the seminar was over.
He further said that Arab ambassadors stress the important role of European
allies in the region, especially the UK, to bring back stability in the Middle
East.
He emphasized that the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries were not
affected by any uprisings due to the deep relations that ties these countries
together.
Fair distribution of fortune in the Gulf region and the ability to utilize
this fortune were key ingredients to achieve development and social stability.

in the Middle East, supporting democracy and boosting ties with Arab nations.
