No Kuwait-Comoros deal to take stateless

KUWAIT CITY: Kuwait’s foreign minister said Monday that a deal to grant thousands of stateless people in the Gulf emirate Comoran nationality had not been struck despite reports.
Sheikh Sabah Khaled Al-Sabah, in comments published in the Al-Qabas daily newspaper, denied rumors circulating in Kuwaiti media on the agreement.
“If we sign an agreement with any country, the foreign ministry is obliged... to complete the necessary legal procedures in accordance with the constitution,” the minister said.
