Kuwait City: Kuwait's Cabinet on Tuesday strongly condemned the remarks of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding Saudi Arabia, in which he suggested the establishment of a Palestinian state on Saudi territory, backing Riyadh's steadfast support for the Palestinians.

The Cabinet emphasized this position during its weekly session presided over by Acting Prime Minister and Interior Minister Sheikh Fahad Yusuf Al-Sabah.
Fresh from visits to several Arab nations, including Egypt, Jordan, Oman, and the UAE, the Kuwaiti Acting Premier briefed the Cabinet on the outcomes of his discussions with political leaders in these countries. The talks centered on bilateral relations and issues of mutual interest, he reported.
