TEHRAN: Iran and Kuwait pledged to boost economic cooperation during the first visit to Tehran by a Kuwaiti prime minister in more than 30 years, Iranian state media said on Saturday.
In a possible reference to the disputed Arash gas field in the Gulf, Iranian First Vice President Mohammad Reza Rahimi and Kuwaiti Prime Minister Sheikh Nasser Al-Mohammad Al-Sabah called for “cooperation in connection to the resolution of the continental shelf issue,” state broadcaster IRIB said.
They also discussed boosting trade between the two major oil producers and the resumption of halted projects, IRIB said, without elaborating.
“Iran does not observe any limitations in raising the level of the two countries’ ties and is prepared to improve exchanges in all fields,” Rahimi said.
IRIB quoted the Kuwaiti prime minister as saying: “We are prepared to improve our ties in all fields with the friendly ... country of Iran.”
