Bahrain, Saudi hail strong economic cooperation
The Kingdom of Bahrain and Saudi Arabia continue to set a distinguished model of bilateral relations, grounded in solid foundations of cooperation and joint action across diverse sectors.
This was affirmed by Finance and National Economy Minister, His Excellency Shaikh Salman bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, during a high-level coordination meeting held via video conference.
Shaikh Salman co-chaired the meeting of the Coordination Committee on Economy, Energy, Trade and Industry alongside Saudi Minister of Economy and Planning, H.E. Faisal bin Fadhel Al Ibrahim.
The committee is one of five operating under the umbrella of the Saudi-Bahraini Coordination Council.
Enduring ties
Emphasising the enduring and deeply rooted ties between the two kingdoms, Shaikh Salman lauded the progress of their relationship, which he said continues to grow stronger through the continued support of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.
He also highlighted the pivotal role of the Saudi-Bahraini Coordination Council, co-chaired by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Bahrain, and His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Saudi Arabia.
The Council, he noted, has become instrumental in advancing strategic partnerships and expanding bilateral cooperation to meet the aspirations of both countries and their citizens.
During the meeting, both sides reviewed the latest updates on joint initiatives and key recommendations outlined in the committee's work plan.
