The nations of Israel and Kuwait have no diplomatic relations. Kuwait refuses entry to anyone with a passport issued by Israel or documenting travel to the State of Israel; Israel does not have formal entry or trade restrictions. During the wars between Arab nations and the State of Israel, Kuwaiti forces participated against the State of Israel.[1]
History[]
Kuwait boycotts Israeli products.[2] In January 2014 Kuwait boycotted a renewable energy conference in Abu Dhabi as it was attended by Israel.[3]
On the heels of the Abraham Accords, in response to Trump announcing that Kuwait could be the next Arab country to recognize Israel, Kuwait denied the claims. [4]
