Kuwait Emir Dissolves Parliament Over oil prices around the world stay low (BBC) by ManirBK: 10:25pm On Oct 16, 2016 |
Kuwait's cabinet has resigned and parliament has been dissolved, triggering early elections. The moves follow disputes between MPs and the government over fuel price increases in the oil-rich country. State-run TV cited a "lack of co-operation". As oil prices around the world stay low,Kuwait's government has cut some benefits including fuel subsidies, hiking the cost of petrol by up to 80%. This led to growing dissent. The government would have completed its normal four-year term in July next year. MPs in the current parliament are widely regarded as pro-government but have filed three requests to ask ministers about the price rises. After an emergency government meeting on Sunday afternoon Kuwait's emir, Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah, issued a decree dissolving the national assembly "given the circumstances in the region". The state-run television channel and news agency announced that the entire cabinet had resigned. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-37671913 |
