Addressing the 67th Session of the United Nations General Assembly on Sunday, Bahraini Foreign Minister Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa reiterated the need to solve the issue of the islands, which he claimed belong to the United Arab Emirate, through direct negotiations or through referring the issue to the International Court of Justice in the Hague.
