As Bahrain’s elections draw near, Al-Wefaq Organization states that “boycotting the elections has become a national task that reflects affiliation to the land of Bahrain and its national identity.”

Bahrain's Al-Wefaq Organization said in a statement today, “The constitutional and political crisis between the regime and the people in Bahrain is widening, and the depth of the existing conflict and division is increasing as a result of the absence of any social contract between the two parties."

In a statement, the organization added that “the ruling regime also continues to ignore state institutions and rely on authoritarian rule by force in order to impose a political, economic, security and societal reality, contrary to the desire and interest of the people of Bahrain."

“Besides, the regime has kept the security grip under whose yoke the majority of the people of Bahrain live, denied any sense of security and overwhelmed with threats at all levels,” the statement stressed.

The statement went on to assure that “Bahrain’s elections are the worst experience in history, and the regime thoroughly controls its details, which results in a meager parliament whose sole mission is to polish the image of corruption and crimes against humanity and consolidate the absence of a state of citizenship, institutions, and law”.

Therefore, boycotting the meager elections, according to Al-Wefaq's statement, enjoys a national consensus - unparalleled - and the national political factions of various orientations deem it as one of the tools used for persecution, discrimination, corruption, the misappropriation of wealth, and the obliteration of national identity”, it added.

Al-Wefaq has also affirmed in its statement that “boycotting the elections has become a national duty that reflects the love and belonging to the land of Bahrain and its national identity. It is the least that can be done in the face of injustice, corruption, and tyranny."

Furthermore, Al-Wefaq stressed “the need to shift from an authoritarian regime to a democratic one - in which the people elect their government through sound democratic mechanisms - instead of appointed governments, which have proven their futility, inefficiency, and the lack of confidence of the people having failed repeatedly to resolve various crises..."
