Manama - Arab Today
Bahrain has welcomed the strategy announced by US President Donald J. Trump stressing that Iran is the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism. The Kingdom also welcomed the steps announced by President Trump on how to deal with the Iranian Nuclear Agreement including the imposition of sanctions on the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.
The Kingdom stressed that this stance is a confirmation and a reminder to the global community of the importance of combating terrorism and all those who support it to make the region and the world more peaceful and stable.
“The Kingdom lauds the policy of President Trump and his keenness to prevent chaos and to counter Iran's attempts to promote terrorism, affirming that Bahrain is one of the countries most affected by the expansionist policy of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which aims to undermine the security of our societies by promoting and supporting extremist ideas and destructive acts of terrorism, which are unacceptable and cannot be tolerated,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
“Bahrain reiterates its support for all efforts aimed at preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and to combat Iran's sponsoring and supplying of weapons to the extremist militias in the region. The Kingdom also stresses the need for Iran to respect the sovereignty of its neighbours and to adhere to international law and norms.”
