Bahrain names Shia deputy PM for the first time
By: Ali Al-Qadumi
MANAMA, Bahrain: Bahrain formed a new cabinet, appointing a
Shiite as a deputy prime minister for the first time in the
Gulf kingdom where Shiites make up more than 80 percent of the
population.
Jawad bin Salem al-Oraied, a former cabinet minister, was
named as one of three deputies to Prime Minister Sheikh
Khalifa bin Salman al-Khalifa. The other two deputies are
members of the ruling family.
The new line-up also gave a junior foreign portfolio to
another member of the country's Shiite majority, Nizar bin
Sadek al-Baharneh.
King Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa kept key portfolios unchanged in
the new team as reported by the official Bahrain News Agency.
