Israel in Secret Talks with Kuwait Amid Regional Threats
Israel is reportedly engaged in discreet, "under the radar" discussions with Kuwait, a Muslim nation with which it does not have official diplomatic relations. The talks are focused on shared security challenges and regional threats, particularly those posed by Iran, according to a report by "Kan News" citing an informed source.
A former Kuwaiti minister suggested that cooperation with Israel could be mutually beneficial, describing it as a "win-win" scenario for Gulf states to counter common adversaries and maintain regional security and stability. He noted that the current regional landscape has shifted how Gulf nations perceive threats, with Iran increasingly seen as a primary concern.
This development gains further significance following remarks by Israel's Ambassador to the UAE, Yossi Shelley, who indicated that another country is expected to join the Abraham Accords within months. Shelley specifically mentioned Kuwait as a potential candidate to normalize relations with Israel, suggesting it could be the "next swallow."
