    Ministry of Foreign Affairs Director-General Alon Ushpiz will depart on an official visit to Manama, the capital of Bahrain, today (Thursday, June 2, 2022).
    During the visit, Dir-Gen Ushpiz will chair the Israeli delegation to the second session of the Bilateral Steering Committee (the first session was held in Jerusalem in August 2021), and will hold a series of official meetings with the Bahraini leadership, including the Foreign Minister and the Deputy Foreign Minister.
    Israel and Bahrain signed the bilateral Joint Warm Peace Strategy, which is a roadmap for the development of bilateral relations between the two countries over the next decade, at the Negev Summit in March 2022.
    MFA Dir-Gen Alon Ushpiz: “The relationship with Bahrain is at the core of Israel's political activity. The roadmap for developing the bilateral relationship is being built step-by-step, in practical terms that bear fruit for the benefit of both peoples. I am happy for the opportunity to chair the second session, which is intended to ensure that its products will form another pillar of Israeli relations with Bahrain, as well as contribute to regional stability, including the continuation of the Negev Summit process.”
