KUWAIT: Local government and economic officials reacted to calls by US President Donald Trump on the World Trade Organization to change the categories of some countries, including Kuwait, from developing to rich in order to deprive them of facilities and benefits WTO gives to developing countries. Government sources said effects of such calls on Kuwait are minimal, especially since the Kuwaiti economy relies on exporting and selling oil, while the industrial sector which benefits from WTO facilities does not contribute more than 4 percent to the economy. - Al-Qabas
