Madam President,

India warmly welcomes the delegation of Kuwait for the adoption of the report of the Working Group on its 3rd Universal Periodic Review. 

2. The review which saw a substantive participation and engagement by as many as 122 member states is noteworthy.  

3. India appreciates the constructive engagement by the delegation of Kuwait during the entire review. Accepting 230 recommendations including all 4 from India out of a total 302 recommendations that Kuwait received shows the strong commitment that Kuwait attaches to the UPR process.

4. While recommending the adoption of the report on its UPR, we warmly congratulate Kuwait for a successful review and wish them all success in efforts for implementing the accepted recommendations.

Thank you, Madam President.
