Zahed Matar Opinion Attack on Pasdaran ‘base’ Restore our soul By Ahmed Al-Jarallah Editor-in-Chief, the Arab Times GIVEN that the relationship between the two authorities - executive and legislative - did not start on the right path, the balance between them has been disturbed. Therefore, it has become clear that a healthy relationship between them cannot be expected in the coming days. This will be eminent if the National Assembly witnesses the resignations of MPs and becomes preoccupied with by- elections. This means that all the issues presented to the legis- lative authority will be delayed until the matter of new power is resolved after the election. This would put more pressure on the public in terms of their livelihood and the economic issues. On the Cabinet’s table are a series of laws related to econ- omy and sustenance, some of which are of a social nature, and some others related to freedoms and liberties. This has become an absolute requirement for the restoration of Ku- wait’s democratic spirit, which the country has known since its establishment, not only from the time the constitution came into effect. These issues could have been resolved if there was sincere intention by both the parliament and government to do so, by passing the laws instead of making them tools of mutual pres- sure between the two arch-rivals. It would have prevented a lot of unnecessary escalation, especially since it negatively reflects on the internal situation. It is very shameful for Kuwait, which was the first Gulf state to choose democracy as its way of life, to prosecute people with an arsenal of laws that restricts their freedoms. If someone is spared from the mines of the publications law, he ends up falling on the mines of the national unity law or the audiovisual law and the communications law, and finally the heresy of the cybercrime law. This Oct 1, 2020 satellite photo, from Planet Labs Inc shows the Iranian cargo ship MV Saviz in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen. The Iranian cargo ship, be- lieved to be a base for the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard that has been anchored for years in the Red Sea off Yemen, has been attacked, Iranian state television It is categorically worth mentioning that this matter was acknowledged, April 7, 2021.
