Congratulations poured in yesterday for His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, on Bahrain maintaining its Tier-1 status on the US Department of State’s 2021 ‘Trafficking in persons’ report.
Confirming Bahrain’s status, the report said: The Government of Bahrain meets the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking. The government continued to demonstrate serious and sustained efforts during the reporting period, considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its anti-trafficking capacity; therefore Bahrain remained on Tier 1.”
