Prime Minister Narendra Modi Sunday left for home after wrapping up his two-day “successful” visit to Kuwait during which the two countries elevated their relationship to a strategic partnership, marking a new era of bilateral cooperation and growth. “Thank you Kuwait! This visit was historic and will greatly enhance our bilateral relations. I thank the Government and people of Kuwait for their warmth. I also thank the PM of Kuwait for the special gesture of coming to the airport for the see-off,” Modi said in a post on X. <\/p>\n

Modi’s visit to Kuwait was the first by an Indian Prime Minister to the Gulf nation in 43 years. <\/p>\n

In a special gesture, Kuwaiti Prime Minister Ahmad Abdullah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah came to off Modi at the airport as he left for India. <\/p>\n

“A historic & successful visit to Kuwait concludes! PM @narendramodi emplanes for New Delhi,” Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said in a post on X. <\/p>\n

During his visit, Modi held extensive talks with the country’s top leadership, including Emir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, with whom he discussed boosting ties in information technology, pharmaceuticals, fintech, infrastructure and security. <\/p>\n


“In line with the close ties between our nations, we have elevated our partnership to a strategic one and I am optimistic that our friendship will flourish even more in the times to come,” Modi said in a post on X. Modi held wide-ranging talks with Kuwaiti Prime Minister Ahmad Abdullah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah and Crown Prince Sabah Al-Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Mubarak Al-Sabah with a focus on giving new momentum to the overall bilateral ties. Kuwait also conferred its highest honour – ‘The Order of Mubarak Al-Kabeer<\/a>‘ – on Prime Minister Modi for his role in strengthening the good relations between the two countries. <\/p>\n

On Saturday, Modi addressed an Indian community event and visited an Indian labour camp. The over one million-strong Indian community is the largest expatriate community in Kuwait. <\/p>\n

The Gulf nation is among India’s top trading partners, with bilateral trade valued at USD 10.47 billion in the financial year 2023-24. <\/p>\n

Kuwait is India’s sixth largest crude supplier, meeting 3 per cent of the country’s energy needs. <\/p>\n

Indian exports to Kuwait reached USD 2 billion for the first time, while investments by the Kuwait Investment Authority in India exceeded USD 10 billion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
