Bahrain is keen to exchange expertise with neighbouring Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries to develop practical and scientific capabilities in the legal sector. This was affirmed by Defense Affairs Minister Lieutenant General Abdullah bin Hassan Al Nuaimi who attended the opening ceremony of the first GCC advanced judicial course for officers. Al Nuaimi thanked Bahrain Defense Force (BDF) Commander-in-Chief Field Marshal Shaikh Khalifa bin Ahmed Al Khalifa for his support to the course.

The Minister also stressed the BDF’s commitment to upgrading the judicial system to achieve GCC common goals by exchanging judicial experiences and expertise. The Bahraini military judiciary devotes all its efforts to achieve the greatest degree of cooperation with other countries, he added. The BDF is keen on holding advanced judicial and legal courses for officers regularly to enable officers to develop their knowledge and practical aptitudes in the legal field, the minister said.
