A book authored by former Ambassador Taqi Al-Baharna was launched this evening at the Bahrain National Museum. Deputy Premier Shaikh Mohammed bin Mubarak Al-Khalifa patronised the launch ceremony in the presence of Shura Council Chairman Ali bin Saleh Al-Saleh, invitees and members of the diplomatic corps.
