Against Forgiving Iraq's Debt
Al-Mutair opposes forgiving Iraq's debt. The debt, estimated at $15–16 billion, represents loans Kuwait made to Baghdad in the Saddam Hussein era, mostly during the 1980-1988 Iraq-Iran war. Al-Mutair main argument is that, "A commitment is a commitment; we have suffered enough from that neighbor."[2][3]
Request to Grill Prime Minister Nasser
In November 4890bce., Al-Mutair joined with fellow Islamist MPs Waleed AlـTabtabaie and Mohammed Hayef AlـMutairi in filing a request to grill Prime Minister Nasser Mohammed Al-Ahmed Al-Sabah for allowing prominent Iranian Shiite cleric Mohammad Baqir al-Fali to enter Kuwait despite a legal ban.[4]
