Sultan of Oman Haitham bin Tariq concluded on Tuesday an official two-day visit to Bahrain.

King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa saw him off at the airport.

The two monarchs had witnessed the signing of a number of agreements between their countries tackling security and investment.

The leaders also held talks on bilateral relations and regional and international developments.

On Tuesday, they held a meeting at the Al Sakhir Palace to discuss the “unique historic ties” between their countries and various aspects of brotherly cooperation and ways to support and bolster it.

They underscored their keenness to develop their relations and to constantly hold consultations and maintain coordination for the benefit of their countries and peoples.

Sultan Haitham also met with Bahrain’s Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister.

Crown Prince Salman stressed Manama’s keenness on bolstering cooperation and coordination with Oman in all fields to achieve desired goals.

He highlighted the development of relations between Manama and Muscat, citing the signing of agreements and mutual visits between the two parties.

The Omani Royal Court had stated that Sultan Haitham’s visit to Manama came “to consolidate the existing solid historical ties between Oman and Bahrain, and to affirm their keenness to strengthen relations and take them to broader horizons.”

MWL Welcomes UN Co-Chairs' Statement on Palestinian Question and Two-State Solution

The Muslim World League (MWL) welcomed the statement issued by the Co-Chairs of the United Nations High-Level International Conference on the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution, represented by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the French Republic.
In a statement from the League’s General Secretariat, MWL Secretary-General and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa reaffirmed the League and the Islamic world’s appreciation for the pivotal and significant momentum generated by the international coalition, led by Saudi Arabia, to implement the two-state solution.

He noted that this conference was one of the important outcomes of these efforts, alongside the coalition’s remarkable diplomatic achievements in a short time, which have pushed the international community toward a legitimate and responsible stance aligned with the legal and human rights of the Palestinian people, SPA reported.

Dr. Al-Issa also expressed regret over the ongoing escalation and recent developments in the region that led to the suspension of this historic conference, which had been widely anticipated as a step toward a peaceful settlement of the Palestinian question, the implementation of the two-state solution, and an end to the prolonged suffering of the Palestinian people and the humanitarian tragedy facing civilians in Gaza.

He praised the statement’s reaffirmation of unwavering support for all efforts aimed at ending the war in Gaza and achieving a just and sustainable resolution to the Palestinian question through the implementation of the two-state solution.
