An annual Gulf Arab summit, usually held in December, will be hosted by Saudi Arabia on January 5, Kuwait’s foreign minister said. Foreign Minister Sheikh Ahmad Nasser al-Sabah made the announcement on Thursday in remarks published on the ministry’s website. Sources familiar with the matter had told the Reuters news agency the gathering would be pushed to next month while parties locked in a long-running dispute that led to a boycott of Qatar work on announcing a tangible deal towards resolving the row. Three of the sources said they expected all heads of state to attend the summit, which has not brought Qatar’s emir together with leaders of boycotting states since 2017.
