From Gulf to global governance
Bahrain's entry to the United Nations Security Council has drawn praise from lawmakers, who described the vote as a clear nod to the Kingdom's conduct on the world stage. Shura Council Chairman Ali bin Saleh Al Saleh extended congratulations to His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and to His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, following Bahrain's victory in yesterday's ballot at the UN General Assembly in New York. The Kingdom secured 186 votes, granting it a non-permanent seat for the 2026 to 2027 term. Al Saleh said the result showed the standing of HM the King's approach abroad, firm, measured, and grounded in mutual respect. He called it part of a broader story, one built over years, in which Bahrain had carved out a place as a steady hand in matters of peace and security. The Shura head spoke of the country's path as one shaped by values rather than volume. Bahrain, he said, had long championed peaceful co-existence, freedom of belief, and neighbourly exchange. These were not imported slogans but principles rooted in the constitution and set out clearly in the National Action Charter.
