KUWAIT: Kuwait will never disclose the size
of its oil reserves for reasons of national
security, Oil Minister Sheikh Ali al-Jarrah
al-Sabah was quoted as saying after the Gulf
Arab state announced a new oil find.
“Kuwait has not and will not disclose
the size of its oil reserves,” he told
Al-Arabiya Television late on Monday.
“The Kuwait people are not concerned with
numbers. This is related to national security.”—Agency
