753 Al-Kuwayt continued to be the only place in the area which refrained from involvement in
pro- or anti-Su‘udi disputes and from substantial contact with the Su'udi state in this and
subsequent periods under study. Although information on the subject is lacking, one can gather
that Su‘udi relations with al-Kuwayt were normal and friendly, as suggested by the fact that both
Faysal and ‘Abdullah had a representative residing there.
