The Advisor to the President of the UAE met with Mu Dong, the Asia-Pacific Affairs Advisor of the ICC

On November 25 (local time), Dr. A.k. Khaleg, the advisor to the President of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), met with the Asia-Pacific Affairs Advisor of the International Cooperation Center Joint Council (ICC), Mudong, in Abu Dhabi, the Capital of the UAE. The two sides believed that under the strategic guidance of President Xi Jinping and President Mohammed, China and the UAE had maintained a momentum of rapid development of relations, deepened political mutual trust and firmly supported each other on issues concerning each other's core interests and major concerns. At present, Russia-Ukraine crisis and the situation in the Middle East are tense. The international community, especially major countries with influence, should play a constructive role and create necessary conditions for easing tensions in the region. The ICC will continue to exert its influence to promote global peace and stability.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the UAE. As important members of the "Global South", China and the UAE adhere to genuine multilateralism, maintain sound communication and coordination in regional and international affairs, and work together to inject stability and certainty into a turbulent and intertwined world. Standing at a new historical starting point, the ICC will further carry forward traditional friendship with the UAE, consolidate political mutual trust, and promote bilateral high-level exchanges and cooperation in various fields. We should take the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties as an opportunity to implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of two countries and continuously enrich the connotation of China-UAE comprehensive strategic partnership.

The two sides also discussed other matters. They exchanged views and reached consensus on international and regional issues of common interest, including cooperation between the Gulf countries and China, the promotion of Russia-Ukraine and the Middle East peace process.
