The Embassy of Italy in Bahrain held a reception to mark the 79th anniversary of the Italian Republic, attended by ministers, diplomats and senior government figures.

Among the guests were Justice Minister, His Excellency Nawaf Al Ma’awda, Sustainable Development Minister Noor Al Khulaif, and the President of Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities (BACA) H.E. Shaikh Khalifa bin Ahmed Al Khalifa.

Also present were H.E. Ambassador Dr Shaikha Munira bint Khalifa bin Hamad Al Khalifa, director-general of the Mohammed bin Mubarak Al Khalifa Academy for Diplomatic Studies, and H.E. Ambassador Shaikh Abdulla bin Ali bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, who oversees bilateral affairs at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

H.E. Italian Ambassador Andrea Catalano welcomed those in attendance and thanked Bahrain for its role in supporting what he described as a longstanding friendship between the two countries.

“I’m extremely honoured today to host this celebration, the 79th anniversary of the Italian Republic, here in Bahrain,” he said. “It commemorates the friendship between our two nations, which we will work to make even stronger, building on the visit of Prime Minister Meloni to the Kingdom last January and future visits we hope to see to Italy.”

The reception in Manama followed a number of recent meetings and visits between Rome and Bahrain, with both sides aiming to deepen political and economic ties.
