Substantial international challenges resulted in a series of diplomatic successes that were achieved through willingness and commitment.
With support from their global alliances, the Kingdom of Bahrain was ready and able to meet complex global challenges with ease and confidence. The country’s efforts to defend their territorial and maritime sovereignty through diplomatic means at the International Court of Justice, demonstrate dedication to the nation, unwavering conviction and collective consciousness.
Furthermore, the Kingdom of Bahrain’s role on the UN Security Council (1998-1999) as a non-permanent member, and the election of HE Shaikha Haya bin Rashed Al Khalifa in 2006 as the first Arab woman to preside over the UN General Assembly, exemplify the advancement of the country, further cementing their global image as a progressive, tolerant nation.
