In this Sunday, July 6, 2014 photo released by the Bahraini opposition group, Al Wifaq, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor Tom Malinowski, second left, visits with Sheikh Ali Salman, head of Wifaq National Islamic Society, left, former member of the Bahraini parliament, Abdul Jalil Khalil, second right, Timothy J. Pounds, Deputy Chief of Mission at the US Embassy in Bahrain, right, and others at a traditional weekly Ramadan gathering or Majlis, in Manama Bahrain. Bahrain ordered Malinowski to leave the country on Monday after they said he met with a leading Shiite opposition group Sunday. The Foreign Ministry said Malinowski intervened in the country's domestic affairs by holding meetings with some groups at the expense of others. Al Wifaq spokesman Abdul Jalil Khalil told The Associated Press that Malinowski was scheduled to hold a joint meeting with them and other opposition groups on Tuesday. (AP Photo/Al Wifaq)
