KUWAIT, Aug 25 (KUNA) -- National Assembly Speaker Marzouq Al-Ghanim on Tuesday called the government, represented by the Foreign Ministry and the Ministry of Oil, to provide clarifications over the issue of Al-Durra oil field with Iran.
In a press statement, he sought government's elucidation of the ongoing dispute over differences with the Iranian side on Al-Durra field. The government was urged to clarify circumstances with full transparency and clarity.
Such files are utterly sensitive and it is absolutely unacceptable to leave them open to interpretations by public opinion, he said.
Al-Ghanim stressed the necessity of issuing an official statement based on clear facts, so that all can bear due responsibility. (end) msa
