Kuwait’s Cabinet resigns amid growing tensions between government ministers and parliament

KUWAIT CITY (AP) — The ministers on Kuwait’s Cabinet submitted their resignations on Monday over growing differences with lawmakers in the tiny nation’s parliament, the state-owned Kuwait Television said.

All members of the Cabinet placed their resignations at the disposal of the prime minister, Sheik Nasser Al Mohammed Al Sabah, citing the differences between the executive and legislative powers.

The report did not say whether the resignations were accepted.

Lately, Kuwaiti parliament and government have been at odds. Among other issues, the assembly has been insisting on a pay hike for civil servants even though a generous salary increase has been given by the Cabinet already.
