The EU Special Representative has strongly criticized the Bahraini government for arresting Rajab, considering that the measures taken against him "threaten national reconciliation".
Upon reaching Bahrain, Lambrinidis announced that he is on a "human rights" visit and that he is willing to "meet with the government, justice and human rights institutions, Parliament, political societies and civil society."
