New Delhi [India], Jul 12 (ANI): External Affairs Minister (EAM) Sushma Swaraj will pay a two-day state visit to Bahrain from July 14 to 15, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) announced on Thursday.
Later, Swaraj will inaugurate a new chancellory complex and will address a gathering to the Indian community residing there.
On Sunday, she will have a series of meetings with the Bahraini political leadership. Two to three agreements are expected to be signed during the visit.
Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said, "This visit will provide an opportunity to not only cement a strong relationship with Bahrain to identify new areas of cooperation between the two sides.
