Kuwaiti Ambassador to Germany Najib Abdulrahman Al-Badr, accompanying the security chief during the event, said in a statement to Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) that Sheikh Thamer exchanged views with Arab and foreign officials on regional and international affairs.

Sheikh Thamer, during the talks with the Arab and foreign officials, affirmed that Kuwait would pursue efforts to beef up stability in the Gulf region.
Moreover, he touched on efforts for combating terrorism and ramifications resulting from conflicts and strifes in the Middle East, particularly with respect of the legitimate Palestinian cause.
