AGSIW hosted a virtual private roundtable analyzing the latest developments in Kuwait following Kuwaiti Emir Meshal al-Ahmed al-Jaber al-Sabah’s dissolution of the newly elected Kuwaiti Parliament and indefinite suspension of relevant articles of the constitution. These moves followed parliamentary elections in April that did little to alleviate tensions between the ruling family and parliament over cabinet formation and royal succession, among other issues. 

This program was convened by invitation only and held under the Chatham House Rule. If you are interested in being included in AGSIW’s exclusive events, please contact Raymond Karam, chief program and development officer: [email protected].
