KUWAIT, Dec 23 (KUNA) -- Kuwait's Ministry of Defense on Thursday denied reports about purported negotiations to sell 33 used F/A-18 Hornet aircraft in possession of the Kuwait Air Force to the Malaysian air force.
The Kuwait Army Chairmanship of Staff said in a statement any negotiations to sell ordnance owned by the ministry of defense would be declared directly.
Such deals are conducted via the assets commission affiliated to the ministry, as well as in coordination with the ministry of finance after approval of the manufacturing country and in line with standing procedures. (end)
