Kuwait’s Deputy Foreign Minister Mansour Al-Otaibi held talks on Wednesday with Britain’s Middle East Affairs Minister Lord Tariq Ahmad, ahead of a joint steering committee meeting in Kuwait later this month.

The talks examined ongoing preparations for a separate Kuwaiti-British ministerial-level meeting slated for March, in addition to efforts aiming to improve bilateral trade and investment ties, according to a Kuwaiti embassy statement.

The Kuwaiti diplomat and British minister also exchanged viewpoints on ongoing developments around the world, added the statement.
