Bahrain, US and UK sign Comprehensive Security Integration and Prosperity Agreement (C-SIPA)
As part of the official visit of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to the United States of America, the Kingdom of Bahrain and the US signed the Comprehensive Security Integration and Prosperity Agreement (C-SIPA). The agreement was signed on behalf of Bahrain by Shaikh Abdullah bin Rashid Al Khalifa, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Bahrain to the United States; on behalf of the United States of America by Maura Namdar, Senior Official at the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs at the US Department of State; and on behalf of the United Kingdom by Lucy Ferguson, Minister Counsellor for Foreign Policy, Security and Development at the British Embassy in Washington, D.C. Shaikh Abdullah bin Rashid said that the C-SIPA agreement sets the groundwork for building stronger security cooperation and supporting prosperity in the Middle East. He emphasised that the agreement embodies the vision of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and His Excellency President Donald Trump of the United States of America, towards achieving peace, stability, and prosperity for the countries and peoples of the region and the world. The agreement further expresses the current regional reality, which aspires to peace, prosperity, development, and cooperation by establishing normal relations between all the countries of the region. The ambassador commended the efforts of HRH the Crown Prince and Prime Minister to strengthen cooperation between Bahrain and the United States. He highlighted His Royal Highness's ongoing commitment to building a solid and strategic partnership that serves the shared interests of both nations. The ambassador emphasised that these efforts not only support progress and prosperity in Bahrain and the United States, but also contribute positively to the well-being of people across the region and the wider international community. Shaikh Abdullah bin Rashid also commended the trilateral signing by Bahrain, the US, and the UK, on the accession of the UK to the C-SIPA agreement. He noted that the UK's accession represents a strategic milestone in consolidating regional security, stability, and prosperity and in enhancing international partnerships founded on common principles and values. The ambassador welcomed the UK's accession to the agreement, describing it as a multilateral framework that unites countries to strengthen regional security, enhance collective deterrence against external threats, and deepen cooperation in trade, science, and technology to enhance peace and prosperity in the Middle East. This shift from a bilateral to a multilateral agreement opens the door for other countries with shared goals to join. He expressed Bahrain's hope that more nations will become members, benefiting all citizens in the region and promoting broader cooperation, growth, and prosperity. BNA(R)

During the official visit of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to the United States, Bahrain and the U.S. signed a landmark agreement to cooperate on the peaceful use of nuclear energy. The agreement was signed by Bahrain's Foreign Minister, Dr. Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani, and U.S. Secretary of State, Mr. Marco Rubio, as part of the Kingdom's broader commitment to sustainability and its goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Al Zayani described the signing as a major milestone in the long-standing strategic partnership between the two nations. He said the cooperation in civil nuclear energy reflects Bahrain's intention to benefit from U.S. expertise in this vital field and underlines the leadership's commitment to adopting advanced, clean energy technologies. The Foreign Minister highlighted that the agreement supports Bahrain's energy needs in a way that aligns with national and regional security interests. He noted that it builds upon the Comprehensive Security Integration and Prosperity Agreement (C-SIPA), signed in 2023, which has further deepened ties between Bahrain and the U.S. in defense, security, emerging technologies, trade, and investment. 'This agreement is a significant step forward,' Dr. Al Zayani stated. 'It shows our shared interest in promoting safe, secure, and reliable civil nuclear energy, which is crucial for energy security and tackling climate change.' He added that both countries are working together to expand public and private sector cooperation, particularly in energy innovation, and to position nuclear power as a reliable low-carbon energy source for the future. The signing ceremony was also attended by Bahrain's Ambassador to the U.S., Shaikh Abdullah bin Rashid Al Khalifa, and accompanying officials from the Bahraini delegation.
