Kuwait will host the upcoming Arab Summit League 2014 later this month for the first time in the 22-member grouping's history.
The Summit 'Solidarity for a Better Future' would be held in Kuwait City from March 25-26 and will gather the members of the Arab League and leaders from across the Arab world.
The upcoming summit, presided by Kuwaiti Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al Sabah, will focus on the core issues of Arab integration, cooperation and coordination, as well as the latest developments in the region through a series of sessions and meetings over the two days.
Foreign Ministers will meet ahead of the Summit, and Arab leaders and chief delegates will arrive in Kuwait on March 24, a statement released here said.
For the first time, a representative from the new nation of South Sudan will attend the Summit to give a report on the progress the country is making on its journey towards stability and prosperity.
Following the Syria Donor Conference held in Kuwait in January, solving the conflict in Syria and alleviating suffering will continue to be a key focus of the Summit.
Kuwait has hosted several regional and international events over the past few months, reflecting its pivotal role in the promotion and consolidation of cooperation and solidarity among Arab states, including the Arab-Africa Summit and the GCC Annual Summit.
