The amendments are part of Kuwait’s financial and legal makeover, according to Bader Al-Saif. “Kuwait needs to assess its standing, assets, tools and expand its range of possibilities amid this shaky geopolitical climate,” Al-Saif said. “Facelifting the 50-year-old FGF law fits that mode and holistic legal reforms underway.” https://t.co/f16R3XuSTX

People see the current conflict as the latest chapter in their fight for independence, said Bader Al-Saif, a historian at Kuwait University and an associate fellow at Chatham House. It's a struggle that has colored much of the nation's history, he said. "Kuwait had to constantly manage external threats and contend with much larger, and at times more powerful, neighbors," Al-Saif said at a café in a suburb of Kuwait City. That intensified after the Iraqi invasion. "That trauma lingers especially with 308 missing persons, unresolved maritime borders with both Iran and Iraq, and the return to war in the past few months." https://t.co/7tDn4zltCR
