| Kuwait Parliamentary Panel Rejects Gulf Security Pact |
| 2014-04-04 |
| [An Nahar] The Kuwaiti parliamentary committee for foreign relations on Thursday rejected a security pact ratified by other Gulf nations, with MPs saying the government-backed treaty is unconstitutional. Leaders of the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) approved the pact at a summit in December 2012 after it was signed by all GCC interior ministers including Kuwait. The text paves the way for the extradition of anyone accused of carrying out political or security activities against a GCC member state. |
