In his first statements following his official swore in on Wednesday, Kuwait’s new emir, Sheikh Mishal Al Ahmad Al Sabah, criticized lawmakers and executive authorities for what he described as “harm to the interests of the country and the people.”
Sheikh Mishal criticized the government’s choice to assign individuals to jobs “that are not consistent with the simplest rules of justice and fairness” on Wednesday after taking the constitutional oath in front of the National Assembly.
In addition, he disapproved of the harm done to Kuwaiti identity and the pardoning of a number of opposition leaders and prisoners.
The emir stated that it was “necessary to review our current reality, especially in terms of security, the economy and living conditions” .
Kuwait’s Cabinet tendered its resignation shortly after he took office, according to a report by the official news agency Kuna. It further stated that Sheikh Mishal received the resignation from Prime Minister Sheikh Ahmad Nawaf Al Ahmad Al Sabah, the late emir’s son.
