Bahrain yesterday urged world powers, especially the UN Security Council permanent member states, to stop the escalation and hold an international meeting without pre-conditions to resolve conflicts.

Foreign Minister Dr Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani stressed the importance of reaching consensual, peaceful, balanced and sustainable solutions to halt the war between Russia and Ukraine.

The ministry said that the Kingdom, led by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, supports efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine through dialogue and diplomacy.

Dr Al Zayani also voiced Kingdom’s deep concern over tensions, threats, political and military escalation and a polarized world as the war in Ukraine marks its first anniversary. He warned against mounting fears of the war spillover and potential massive loss of life and property, in addition to their threats to world peace and energy and food supplies.

The minister reiterated Bahrain’s support to international efforts in providing humanitarian relief assistance, backing the initiatives led by brotherly and friendly countries for prisoner exchange and facilitating food supplies.
