US embassy cable - 05KUWAIT3641

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Al-Saeedi.  They welcomed the clarification on the revived 
U.S. interest in concluding a Host Country Agreement (HCA) on 
challenge inspections and were pleased to learn that the U.S. 
is pursuing similar agreements with other countries in the 
region.  They intimated that GOK concerns about the HCA had 
been fully addressed, but said there would be no formal 
decision until after the return of Legal Department Director 
Ghanim Al-Ghanim, who is on a two-week mission to Europe and 
North Africa.
