In a meeting with Siniora, Crown Prince Sheikh Nawaf al-Ahmad al-Sabah "stressed Kuwait’s support for Lebanon (and the need for) the Lebanese people to unite to resolve the crisis," the state news agency KUNA reported.
Siniora, whose government is backed by the West and most oil-rich Gulf Arab states, arrived earlier Sunday in Kuwait on a two-day official visit, according to KUNA.
His visit comes as the ruling majority in Beirut blames Syria for the crisis in Lebanon, which has been without a president since November. Damascus denies the charge.
Regional observers have said that failure to break the deadlock could lead some Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, to boycott an Arab summit due to be held in Damascus on March 29-30 or to downgrade their representation.
Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammad al-Sabah was quoted by KUNA on Saturday as saying that all Arab states should help in "clearing the air," which is currently "poisoned," to pave the way for a successful summit.
"The first place where we must start in order to clear the air is Lebanon, through the implementation of the Arab (League) initiative stipulating the election of a president for Lebanon," Sheikh Mohammad said.
Lebanon’s ruling majority accuses the opposition of blocking the plan.
The initiative calls for Lebanese MPs to elect army chief General Michel Sleiman as president, the formation of a national unity government in which no single party has veto power, and for a new electoral law.
Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem said last week that he hopes the deadlock will be resolved before the Damascus summit.
"We hope the efforts of (Arab League chief) Amr Mussa will bring about a solution in Lebanon leading to the election of a president of the republic before the holding of the Arab summit," he said.
