Lavrov Visits Bahrain for Talks with Gulf Cooperation Council Officials
His arrival in the Bahraini capital, Manama, was announced in a Foreign Ministry statement accompanied by photographs showing officials welcoming the Russian diplomat.
Those receiving Lavrov included Bahrain’s Foreign Minister Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani, GCC Secretary-General Jasem Mohamed Al-Budaiwi and Russia’s ambassador to Bahrain, Alexey Skosyrev.
The visit comes as Bahrain prepares to host the ninth Russia-GCC Strategic Dialogue at the foreign minister level. The previous round of discussions took place in September 2025 in Sochi, a Russian resort city.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said during a press briefing on Thursday that participants would discuss a wide range of regional and international developments. She also noted that Lavrov was scheduled to hold additional meetings on the sidelines of the gathering.
