Kuwait is one of the United States staunchest allies in the Persian Gulf and annually conduct joint training exercises and continue to look at coordinating more in the future. Both Navies conduct Maritime Security Operations in the Arabian Gulf that set the conditions for security and stability in the maritime environment as well as complement the counter-terrorism and security efforts. These operations continue to deny international terrorists use of the gulf as a venue for attack or to transport personnel, weapons, or other material.
