Iran Press/ Middle East: Kuwait has restructured the government headed by Sheikh Ahmed Nawaf Al Sabah after several recently-elected members of parliament refused to attend the opening session of parliament in protest over the Cabinet formation.
In the new cabinet of Kuwait, Ahmed Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, son of the Emir of this country, has been appointed as Prime Minister and Talal Khalid Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah as First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior.
Kuwait appointed Bader al Mulla as its new oil minister in a new cabinet, the Ministry of Information in the Gulf country said on Sunday.
Abdul Wahab al-Rasheed is also appointed finance minister and Salem Al-Sabah as foreign minister, the ministry added.
Earlier this month, Kuwait's crown prince Sheikh Meshal al-Ahmad al-Sabah re-appointed Sheikh Ahmad Nawaf al-Sabah, the ruling emir's son, as prime minister. 219
