The British Ambassador to Kuwait, Belinda Lewis, stressed on Sunday the depth of deep-rooted relations between United Kingdom and Kuwait, which are rooted in 125 years of partnerships between the two countries. This came in a press statement made by Ambassador Lewis to Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) during the Kuwaiti-British partnership tree planting event in the National Library of Kuwait Park in the presence of the Director General of the National Library, Siham Al-Azmi, and Sheikha Hala Al-Sabah.

Ambassador Lewis said that planting of the tree is an expression of the strength and depth in the relationship between the United Kingdom and Kuwait. The two countries considered last January as the “Year of Kuwaiti-British Partnership” in celebration of 125 years of distinguished diplomatic relations.
