SOCIALISTS in Kuwait have hit out at what they claim to be an attempt by US President Joe Biden to form an alliance with reactionary Middle Eastern states to shore up support for Israel. 

The Kuwaiti Progressive Movement has accused Mr Biden of seeking to consolidate support for Tel Aviv at a forthcoming summit in Saudi Arabia. 

“It is no longer a secret to anyone that the main objective of US President Joe Biden’s visit to our region … is not limited to the issue of energy and its pricing as it attempts to compensate for Russian oil and gas because of the Ukrainian war, as was previously reported,” the leftists said.
