In a lecture at the Kuwait Diplomatic Institute, NATO Defense College commander Lt.-Gen. Wolf-Dieter Loeser called for closer relations between NATO and the Gulf countries, particularly Kuwait, and warned that Iran's nuclear program endangered the region as well as the entire world.
Kuwait Diplomatic Institute director-general Abd Al-'Aziz Al-Sharekh said that Kuwait and NATO were working to increase cooperation between them, and to draw up an agreement enabling NATO to use Kuwaiti ports and airfields for activity in Iraq.
Kuwaiti national security apparatus deputy director Sheikh Thamer Ali Al-Sabbah said that soon he would head a delegation that would visit the NATO Defense College.
