| Kuwait is now a non-NATO ally |
| 2004-01-17 |
| President Bush strengthened U.S. military relations with Kuwait on Thursday by awarding it the status of major non-NATO ally. The upgrade in military ties allows the United States to provide more advanced military equipment and supplies. Kuwait was a major backer of the U.S.-led war against Iraq last year and served as a staging ground for U.S. troops and attacks. In 1991, the United States launched its first war against Iraq to drive Saddam Hussein’s forces from Kuwait. |
