The National Assembly (parliament) was dissolved by His Highness the Crown Prince Sheikh Mishal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al Sabah. To rectify the political scene involving lack of harmony and cooperation, as well as differences, conflicts, personal interests, refusal to accept others, practices and behaviors that undermine national unity, it was necessary to turn to those who represent destiny, extension, survival, and existence, in order to correct the path in their own interests, observed the Crown Prince in his decree. Sheikh Mishal Al-Ahmad made the decision upon an Amiri Decree dated November 15, 2021, delegating him some constitutional powers.
