Sheikh Nawaf Al Ahmed Al Sabah, the Crown Prince is anticipated to assume power after the death of Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmed Al Sabah.
Sheikh Nawaf, 83, was provisionally granted some of the Emir’s constitutional duties on July 18 when the Emir was admitted to hospital for medical checks. Under Kuwaiti law, in the absence of the Emir, the crown prince is designated as acting ruler. Sheikh Nawaf was sworn in as crown prince in 2006 after Sheikh Sabah was appointed Emir.
