Manama, Rabi'I 12, 1436, Jan 3, 2015, SPA -- Bahrain's Shura Council has denounced in a statement foreign interference in Bahrain's internal affairs, stressing that the double standards adopted by some countries and organizations do not help in combating terrorism and stopping violence as they threaten civil security and peace. The council affirmed that the irresponsible statements by some countries undermine relations with them and do not help in building trust. It said Bahrain has always respected the sovereignty of other countries and rejects any interference in its own internal affairs. --SPA 12:16 LOCAL TIME 09:16 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
