Kuwait plans “direct cooperation” with French cancer ctr

Kuwait plans next year to have a direct cooperation agreement with renowned French cancer center Institute Gustave-Roussy, the country’s health minister said on Tuesday, without the need to have a “third party” involved. Dr. Ahmad Al-Awadhi has directly contacted the French institute’s public relations chief to discuss the plan, his ministry cited him as saying in a statement, underlining the initiative as an effort to provide quality healthcare services to patients in Kuwait.

Such measures also aim to transform Kuwait into a “regional hub” for cancer treatment, added the minister.
