Cairo: Kuwait’s Emir Nawaf Al Ahmad had arrived in Germany on a private visit, the Kuwaiti news agency Kuna reported.

In June, the Kuwaiti leader made a private visit to Germany.

Nawaf, 84, took office in Kuwait in September 2020, succeeding Emir Sabah Al Ahmad who died aged 91 after ruling the Gulf country for 14 years.

Last November, the incumbent emir has transferred some of his powers to Crown Prince Meshal Al Ahmad Al Jaber Al Sabah.
