The historical and profound bilateral relationship shared between India and Kuwait is expected to be reinforced during this visit. Both nations have long-standing cultural and civilizational ties that have served as the bedrock for their relationship. With an approximate one million-strong Indian population in Kuwait, the Indian community plays a crucial role in the societal fabric of the country.
Kuwait occupies a pivotal position as a major oil supplier, and this economic facet has only further deepened the connection between the two nations. India, in turn, is one of Kuwait’s primary trading partners. Remarkably, bilateral trade between India and Kuwait surged to an unprecedented value of USD 13.8 billion during the last financial year, underscoring the economic synergies between the two countries.
As Minister Muraleedharan embarks on this diplomatic endeavor, the visit holds the promise of not only enhancing political and economic ties but also fostering a renewed sense of unity and cooperation among the Indian community in Kuwait.
