“We express our concern for and strong condemnation of the decision of the Kingdom of Bahrain to follow the United Arab Emirates by establishing diplomatic relations with Israel in contravention of its commitments under the Arab Peace Initiative and within the framework of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation,” the Ministry said.

Emphasizing that the step would deal yet another blow to the efforts to defend the Palestinian cause and would further embolden the zionist occupation regime to continue its illegal acts and attempts to perpetuate the occupation of the Palestinian territories, the Ministry went on to say: “Lasting peace and stability in the Middle East can only be achieved through just and comprehensive settlement of the Palestinian issue in accordance with international law and UN resolutions. Irresponsible concessions made on the basis of narrowly-defined interests and upon pressure and coercion from external actors cannot erase or substitute this reality.”

On Friday, the United States President Donald Trump announced that Bahrain and Israel had agreed to establish full diplomatic relations. (ILKHA)
