The latest situation of the Kuwaiti Emir and possible candidates for succession

Sheikh Mashaal al-Ahmad al-Jaber, 81, the brother of the current emir, who is the deputy head of the Patriotic Guard (Al-Haras al-Watani), Sheikh Nasser al-Sabah, the son of the current emir, and Sheikh Nasser al-Muhammad, the former prime minister, are three figures named alongside Sheikh Nawaf the current Crown Prince.

NOURNEWS - News from Kuwait indicates a relative improvement in the physical condition of Sheikh "Sabah Ahmad Jaber Al-Sabah", Emir of Kuwait.
According to the Kuwait News Agency on Thursday, the Emir of Kuwait went to the United States to continue his treatment after undergoing surgery in Kuwait.
NOURNEWS recieved information, reports that speculation has been rife about three people sitting on the Kuwaiti throne in addition to Crown Prince Nawaf al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah.
Sheikh Mashaal al-Ahmad al-Jaber, 81, the brother of the current emir, who is the deputy head of the Patriotic Guard (Al-Haras al-Watani), Sheikh Nasser al-Sabah, the son of the current emir, and Sheikh Nasser al-Muhammad, the former prime minister, are three figures named alongside Sheikh Nawaf the current Crown Prince.
Kuwaiti Brotherhood groups, led by Muslim al-Barak, a former member of parliament and spokesman for the Muslim Brotherhood in Kuwait, oppose Sheikh Mashal and prefer Nasser al-Sabah to be the next emir of Kuwait.
On the other hand; Sheikh Nasser al-Sabah benefits from the advice of people like Ahmad al-Fahd, who is close to Qatar, who has previously spoken of the need to strengthen Kuwait's relations with Iran and Turkey, and raised the issue of Kuwait joining the Chinese "one belt, one road" plan.
Meanwhile, Sheikh Nasser Al-Muhammad is trying to take advantage of the opposition to Sheikh Mashal and the red light of several countries in the region against Nasser Al-Sabah and show the faces of the sympathizers, especially since he supports many Kuwaiti economic activists.
Nasser al-Mohammad recently tried to deny his close relationship with Iran, stressing that he has very close ties with all Persian Gulf countries, especially Saudi Arabia.
