He emphasised the shared commitment of both kingdoms to continue enhancing bilateral co-operation to achieve common goals.
HRH the Crown Prince, Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, and Prime Minister highlighted the successful bilateral ties between Bahrain and the UK, underpinned by joint agreements such as the Comprehensive Security Integration and Prosperity Agreement (C-SIPA), which the UK recently joined.
