Kuwait continues pro-media by welcoming media to Arab summit

Kuwait continues to be a leader in free and fair media in the Arab world, welcoming Al-Jazeera TV and numerous other media outlets to openly cover Arab Summit which will be held later in March. Kuwait's Minister of Information and State Minister for Youth Affairs Sheikh Salman Sabah Salem Al-Sabah welcomed the media delegation expressing Kuwait’s excitement and support of a free press. Kuwait sets a strong tone by welcoming media, confirming their support and belief in freedom of expression. While many Arab nations add additional restrictions to press and political expression, Kuwait hopes to encourage other heads of state to lessen restrictions after the summit.
