Yesterday the Minister addressed the Indian diaspora in Bahrain, and talked about the relationship between the two countries and said, it has arrived at a new phase.
"Both India and Bahrain share a glorious past and a dynamic present. The journey that began centuries ago, has arrived at a new phase in its course," she said.
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. There are 3,50,000 Indians living in Bahrain and 3,000 Indian-owned joint ventures."
Last month, Swaraj undertook a week-long four-nation visit to Italy, France, Luxembourg and Belgium.
