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.

During an October 30 meeting at the MFA, Al-Jarallah reported that Erdogan "came with a good spirit," focusing primarily on economic and commercial issues. The PM, who traveled to several GCC countries with a delegation of Turkish businesspeople, promoted bilateral economic, trade and investment ties with Prime Minister Shaykh Sabah Al-Ahmed Al-Jaber Al-Sabah and Kuwaiti private sector leaders, the U/S reported.
