For over 100 years, Bahrain has been a strategic and steadfast ally to the USA – and a friend to Americans – in the heart of the Gulf. Together we are creating a more peaceful, more stable, and more prosperous future.

Committed to Shared Peace & Prosperity

Bahrain plays a pivotal role in America’s strategic and security interests as the home to the entire U.S. Navy Fifth Fleet. We are also working to foster dialogue and create a more peaceful, tolerant Middle East and world.
