UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi held talks in Abu Dhabi on Friday on opportunities to strengthen cooperation within the framework of their countries’ Comprehensive Strategic Partnership and Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement.
The leaders stressed their shared commitment to advancing their development partnership and expanding cooperation in ways that support lasting prosperity for their peoples, reported the UAE’s state news agency WAM.
“They reviewed the significant progress in collaboration across sectors that support both countries’ development priorities, particularly the economy, investment, energy, space, food security, technology, and artificial intelligence,” it added.
“They also exchanged views on a number of issues of mutual interest, particularly developments in the Middle East and their serious implications for regional and international peace and security, as well as their impact on maritime security, energy supplies, and the global economy.”
“Modi reiterated India’s condemnation of the Iranian terrorist attacks targeting civilians, civilian facilities and infrastructure in the UAE, saying they are a violation of sovereignty and international norms and laws,” said WAM.
