Saudi Arabia and Qatar will reopen land, air and sea borders, between the countries, in a breakthrough agreement aimed at ending the three-year diplomatic dispute with Doha, starting from Monday evening, Kuwait's Foreign Minister Sheikh Ahmad Nasser Al-Mohammad Al-Sabah said Monday.

"The Kuwaiti emir made a phone call with the Qatari emir and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince, who both confirmed their intention to start a new beginning in their relations," Xinhua news agency quoted the minister as saying in a televised address on Monday evening. "Based on a suggestion from the Kuwaiti Emir, the two countries have agreed to reopen the land, air, and sea borders between the two countries as of today's evening.

"The Kuwaiti Emir expressed his confidence in the keenness of the leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and Egypt to end the Gulf crisis and address all relevant matters," the Foreign Minister added.

The full breakthrough agreement is expected to be inked on Tuesday at the 41st GCC Summit on Tuesday in the north-western Saudi city of AlUla, attended by Qatari emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani.
