Nasser Mohammed Al-Sabah (Shaykh Ahmed),Chief of Staff to FM
Shaykh Dr. Mohammed, reftel themes pertaining to the July 31
GCC 2 meeting. Shaykh Ahmed concurred with the proposed
themes, but suggested that the discussion on Iran not be
confined to WMD concerns but rather encompass a broader
review of Iran's role in regional security. "I assume our
Minister will want this," he said. Shaykh Ahmed also
inquired about a potential joint statement and asked that
Kuwait receive a copy of any draft statement at the earliest
possible opportunity. He confirmed that FM Shaykh Dr.
Mohammed would attend the July 31 GCC 2 meeting and would
return immediately to Kuwait to be on hand for the SecDef's
August 1 visit.
