I strongly condemn yesterday’s bombings in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Thankfully, no one was hurt in the bombings. Nevertheless, I stand with the Government of Bahrain in its effort to maintain stability and national unity. These sorts of attacks are transparently aimed at fueling Sunni and Shiite divisions, not only in Bahrain, but also across our region. We must be able to respect all beliefs in order to have peace in our region in our time. It is achievable. Terrorism, regardless of its aim, cannot ever be tolerated, and we must all stand firmly in opposition to such tactics.
