Bilateral relations between the State of Kuwait and Canada
The diplomatic relationship between the State of Kuwait and Canada established in 1965. It was characterized by a high level of cooperation and understanding on various levels and witnessed distinctive and historical stages based on the common interests that bind the two countries together.
The relations were greatly strengthened during the brutal Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990, as a result of Canada's position in support of Kuwaiti legitimacy and the liberation of Kuwait. Canadian armed forces participated within the International Coalition for the Liberation of the State of Kuwait during the period 1990-1991. As well, Canadian support had a major role in extinguishing the oil well fires that were ignited by the Iraqi forces.
The State of Kuwait and Canada share a similar view on issues of mutual interest, including issues of security, peace, humanitarian aid, trade, investment, clean environment, and climate change.
