Chairing the weekly Cabinet meeting at Gudaibiya Palace, HRH highlighted progress across youth empowerment, foreign diplomacy, and legislative reform.

In a milestone for economic diplomacy, the Cabinet highlighted the Crown Prince’s recent visit to the United States, marked by a historic $17 billion investment package. The agreements reached are expected to unlock long-term growth and reinforce Bahrain’s role as a trusted partner in global trade and security.

Marking World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, the Cabinet renewed its commitment to combating human trafficking. It commended the Ministry of Interior and partner agencies for their tireless efforts and urged continued vigilance.

Bahrain’s humanitarian commitment also remained in focus, with the Cabinet calling for sustained aid to Gaza and reaffirming the Kingdom’s support for a peaceful resolution to the Palestinian issue, including the protection of civilians and an end to violence.

The Cabinet approved several memorandums, including agreements with Tunisia, Turkmenistan, the United States, and local institutions, touching on digital governance, environmental cooperation, security, and educational reform.
