US Hails Bahrain’s “Historic” UN Security Council Leadership

The Stephanie Hallett has congratulated Bahrain on its “historic” presidency of the United Nations Security Council during April.

In a statement, Hallett commended Bahrain’s leadership, highlighting the contributions of Foreign Minister Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani and UN Ambassador Jamal Fares Al Rowaie for their focus on practical solutions and forward-looking vision.
