AMMAN — Kuwait’s “unaltered support” for Jordan’s anti-terror efforts was the most prominent message behind Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmad Al Jaber Al Sabah’s visit to the Kingdom this week, Kuwaiti Ambassador in Amman Hamad Saleh Al Duaij said on Wednesday.

During his meeting with His Majesty King Abdullah, the Kuwaiti emir stressed the importance of intensifying efforts to face regional challenges, especially terrorism and radicalism, Duaij said.

Economic assistance to Jordan, he added, is always a priority for Kuwait, especially now with the Kingdom’s difficult economic conditions due to the regional developments.

The diplomat said his country’s government always urges Kuwaiti businessmen to invest in Jordan.

The volume of Kuwaiti investments in Jordan has reached $12 billion, covering various sectors, according to Duaij.
