Kuwait hails Senegal's stand on nuclear non-proliferation treaty

 Kuwait Ambassador to Senegal Mohammad Khalaf praised on Tuesday Senegal's vote in favor of a resolution urging Israel to join the nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NPT).

During the meeting, the two sides also discussed preparation for hosting the International Organization of la Francophonie in Dakar next November.
Senegal premier also renewed his invitation for His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Jaber Mubarak Al-Hamad Al-Sabah to visit Senegal.
