Sheikh Abdullah, in a statement at end of the 29th session of the Council of Arab Ministers responsible for environment affairs, said the conferees focused on studying means for sustainable development, relevant international treaties and reaching joint views on these accords.

Kuwait has made headways on the path to achieve "environmental governance," he said, noting that EPA's strategy is in harmony with the state sustainable development plans. (pickup previous) mfm.rk
