Pompeo set to visit Kuwait in near future

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called his Kuwaiti counterpart on Wednesday to confirm he would visit the Gulf Arab country "in the coming days", state news agency KUNA said, after cutting short a Middle East tour due to a death in the family.
Pompeo visited several Arab capitals earlier this week, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, in part to reassure allies after President Donald Trump announced he would start withdrawing US troops from Syria.
