1 answer

Iraq invaded Kuwait during the Persian Gulf War in 1990 for various reasons, including territorial disputes, economic grievances, and concerns over Kuwait's oil production. Iraq claimed that Kuwait was overproducing oil, which was driving down prices and harming Iraq's economy. Additionally, Iraq believed that Kuwait was historically part of its territory and accused Kuwait of stealing oil from the Rumaila oil field that straddled their border. Ultimately, Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein sought to control Kuwait's oil resources and consolidate power in the region.
