Jeddah; Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman received King Hamad bin Isa Al-Khalifa of Bahrain at Al-Salam Palace here on Wednesday.
“Bahrain has chosen, all along its history, solidarity with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to safeguard religion, Arab identity, coexistence, and tolerance, and preserve its entity and good neighborliness,” the Bahraini King said.
King Hamad expressed delight at meeting King Salman to discuss regional developments and to express thanks and appreciation for supporting the security and stability of Bahrain.
Bahrain had joined Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and other countries in severing diplomatic ties with Qatar.
He urged the Qatari leadership “to reconsider its policies and honor its commitments to avert chaos and end subversive practices that threaten the security and safety of our countries and jeopardize the unity of our societies.” King Hamad said that relations would then be reinstated “for the good of our dear brethren in Qatar and for us all.”
During the meeting, they exchanged Ramadan greetings. King Salman hosted iftar banquet in honor of the Bahrain monarch and the accompanying delegation.
