Bahrain’s expanding diplomatic efforts are driving tangible economic and strategic outcomes, according to MP Dr Maryam Al-Dhaen.

She credited recent high-level visits by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to Italy and His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to the United States, as key moves that reinforce Bahrain’s foreign policy vision rooted in balanced engagement and long-term cooperation.

Economic framing

Dr Al-Dhaen said such outreach is not only deepening historical ties with partners like Italy and the US, but also paving the way for major economic partnerships. She noted that Bahrain’s diplomatic presence strengthens its position as a reliable and forward-looking partner in the global arena.

UN seat endorsement

The MP also pointed to Italy’s praise for Bahrain’s election to the United Nations Security Council for 2026-2027 as renewed international recognition of the Kingdom’s growing role. She expressed pride in how the leadership’s approach to diplomacy is aligned with values of tolerance, stability, and prosperity.

Al-Dhaen framed the upcoming September visit to Rome as a strategic next step in consolidating bilateral growth and further economic agreements.
