(BNA): Information Affairs Minister, Ali bin Mohammed Al-Romaihi, has extended sincere congratulations to brotherly Egypt’s leadership and people on their country’s celebration of its National Days.

The minister asserted that the Bahrain TV and Radio’s celebration of the anniversary of the glorious July 23 Revolution today is part of the real role the media should play towards brotherly countries with which Bahrain enjoys a long history of strong relations.

In a statement to Bahrain TV, Al-Romaihi stressed that the media reflects the nature of countries and those in charge of it, noting that Bahrain and Egypt boast rich civilisations and a long history, and have always sought love and people for all.

He added that they have always adopted clear stances in support of brotherly and neighbouring countries, away from the culture of interference in other states’ domestic affairs, media chaos or anything aimed at distabilising countries.

“We in Bahrain, and I say it personally, as a person responsible for the media sector, learn a lot from His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, on the important role the media plays in building and supporting the brother, neighbour and friend, and highlighting everything that supports relations and rapprochement among peoples,” the minister said, praying to Allah the Almighty to protect Bahrain and Egypt, as well as their brotherly peoples from all harm.
