U.S.-Bahrain Ties One Year After the Strategic Partnership Agreement

September 13 will mark the first anniversary of the Comprehensive Security Integration and Prosperity Agreement between the United States and Bahrain, intended to strengthen bilateral strategic cooperation across a variety of defense, economic, and technological sectors. Over the past year, C-SIPA has offered a glimpse of a new roadmap that Washington may be able to pursue with other partners in the Middle East, both individually and multilaterally. It could also become the blueprint for assurances that these partners seek from Washington amid growing questions about Iranian aggression, Chinese competition, and the durability of American commitment to the region. To reflect on C-SIPA’s anniversary, its bilateral impact with Bahrain, and its potential for wider collaboration, The Washington Institute is pleased to announce a virtual Policy Forum moderated by senior fellow Elizabeth Dent and featuring two distinguished guests: Steven C. Bondy, U.S. Ambassador to the Kingdom of Bahrain; former Charge d’Affaires and Deputy Chief of Mission at the U.S. Embassy in the United Arab Emirates Sheikh Abdulla bin Rashid Al Khalifa, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Bahrain to the United States; former Governor of the Kingdom’s Southern Governorate
