Last Tuesday, after discussing the grilling motion filed by MP Shuaib Al-Muwaizri against the foreign minister, the parliament speaker, Marzouq Ali Al-Ghanim, announced that 10 MPs submitted a no-confidence motion against the concerned minister.
According to Article 101 of the Kuwaiti Constitution, “if the parliament decides to vote with the no-confidence motion against the minister, he is considered retired from duties immediately.” The no-confidence motion requires approval of the majority of the Parliament members, and the ministers are not included in the voting.
The Kuwaiti Government has renewed backing for the foreign minister.
