Beirut, May 22 (RHC)-- Bahrain plans to restore diplomatic relations with Lebanon, after severing ties in the fall of 2021 following critical comments made by a Lebanese minister of the Saudi-led war in Yemen.
Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies withdrew their diplomats from Lebanon in response. It’s the latest move by Arab nations to resolve disputes and strengthen regional ties.
Over the weekend, Syria’s Bashar al-Assad was welcomed back to his first Arab League summit after 12 years of suspension, while at the same time protesters gathered in and around northern Syria’s rebel-held Idlib to condemn his reintegration into the regional body.
