The UNF sends its sincere condolences on the death of the Emir of Kuwait Sheik Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah.
In power since 2006, the 91-year-old Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah, died in the United States on Tuesday. He had been hospitalized since July across the Atlantic, after undergoing an operation in his country.
On behalf of all our members, we wish to offer our condolences to the family of the deceased who was a man of dialogue.
Under the rule of Sheikh Sabah, Kuwait remained discreet, but its financial capacity made him an often essential player on the Middle Eastern scene. Sheikh Sabah has long headed Kuwaiti diplomacy, a position that allowed him to familiarize himself with all the greats of this world and to play this role of mediator, hailed by all.
