BLOOMBERG: Egypt signaled support for Bahraini government measures to restore order in the kingdom, and the Arab League stressed the importance of stability in a country gripped by protests for more than a month.
Egypt’s Foreign Minister Nabil El-Arabi, who met his Bahraini counterpart Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmed Al-Khalifa in Cairo today, said Egypt “supports what the government of Bahrain is doing politically and supports the steps that it has taken,” Egypt’s official Middle East News Agency said today.
Arab League Secretary-General Amre Moussa, who also met with Sheikh Khalid, said Arab countries stress the importance of preserving the stability and “Arabism” of Bahrain, Mena said. The League has communicated this position through contacts with countries including Iran, Moussa told reporters. » | Mariam Fam | Tuesday, March 22, 2011
