– The National Assembly will hold a special session tomorrow, Wednesday, to vote on a no-confidence motion against the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of State for Cabinet Affairs Sheikh Dr. Ahmad Nasser Al-Mohammad Al-Sabah.

Last Tuesday, after discussing the grilling motion filed by MP Shuaib Al-Muwaizri against the minister, the National Assembly 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 the approval of the majority of the Parliament members, and the ministers are not included in the voting process.

Yesterday, the government renewed backing the foreign minister after reviewing the National Assembly affairs and developments related to the no-confidence motion
