Kuwait welcomes Saudi king's call for Arab summit

KUWAIT, May 20 (KUNA) -- Kuwait on Monday welcomed a recent call by Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud for holding an urgent Arab summit in Makkah.
Kuwait's permanent representative mission at the Arab Leauge said Kuwait supports this urgent summit in Makkah.
The Saudi King Salman had invited Gulf and Arab leaders to two emergency summits in Makkah on May 30 to discuss the repercussions of recent attacks on Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The summit will come "in the wake of the attack on commercial ships in the territorial waters of the United Arab Emirates," said a source of the Saudi Foreign Ministry. (end) mt
