Bahraini diplomacy is registered with a remarkable presence in Arab and international circles, led by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince, Prime Minister, who continues to translate the vision of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, the king of the country, may God protect and preserve him in expanding Bahrain and enhancing its position at various levels. In this context, the official visit made by His Highness to the sisterly Arab Republic of Egypt came to confirm that the Bahraini-Egyptian relations are proceeding with a renewed path that opens a new page in the bilateral cooperation record.
The visit carried highly significant political and economic messages, not only to fix the compatible positions on regional and Arab national security issues, but rather exceeded the expansion of economic and investment cooperation, which was embodied by the memoranda of understanding that was signed in the new administrative capital, which included new areas such as digital transformation, logistics, food security, construction, and protection Competition, as well as tourism, culture, work and social affairs. It is a clear message that the Bahraini-Egyptian relations are no longer limited to traditional files, but rather open today to welcoming horizons that paint the features of a more integrated future between the two countries.
This strategic step reflects a joint awareness of the two leaderships of the importance of formulating modern relations that take into account the requirements of sustainable development and keep pace with regional and international changes. The economy has become an essential pillar in the national security equation, and the promotion of partnerships in industry, investment and sustainable development establishes the immunity of the two countries in facing challenges and increases their ability to seize promising opportunities.
Also, the identical positions towards the Palestinian issue, the joint support for the efforts of the reconstruction of Gaza, and the assertion that Bahrain’s security is an integral part of the Egyptian national security, represents an additional dimension in political and regional coordination, and confirms that this bilateral relationship represents in its essence a lever of joint Arab action.
In the context of this visit, a noble gesture emerged from His Highness the Crown Prince, the Prime Minister, which carried the great appreciation of the accompanying media and commercial delegation. Since the moment of reaching Cairo, His Highness was keen on the assessment of the accompanying delegation, and we visited us at our residence before his highness headed to the headquarters of his residence, and even in the plane back and forth, he directed His Highness to allocate the business class to the editors and the commercial delegation, while the ministers and officials sat in the tourist class. This exceptional gesture had a great impact, as it reflects his deep appreciation of the media and the commercial sector as partners in the march of the renaissance of the homeland, and reveals his humble human personality that puts its guests in the first place.
From this platform, we can only raise the highest verses of thanks, gratitude and gratitude to His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince, Prime Minister, first on this exceptional visit by all accounts, then on this great care and personal appreciation of the heads of editorial and accompanying delegations, which reflects an authentic approach to leadership, titled trust, fulfillment and interest in man before the position.
