The UAE's President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan emphasised the "power of partnerships" during talks with US President Joe Biden at the White House.
Sheikh Mohamed reaffirmed the UAE's commitment to its partnership with the United States, highlighting the importance of collaboration with nations that share similar values for a brighter future.
The two leaders explored the depth of the UAE-US strategic relationship, focusing on enhancing ties in key areas such as trade, investment, advanced technology, renewable energy, and climate action.
They expressed a strong desire to expand cooperation to promote global prosperity and stability.
Reflecting on the historical bonds between the two nations, His Highness recalled a meeting in 1974 between the UAE's Founding Father Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and a NASA team who gave a briefing on the Apollo programme.
He noted that fifty years later, the UAE is now collaborating with NASA on the Gateway mission, humanity's first lunar space station.
Sheikh Mohamed and Biden also reviewed regional and international issues, including the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and underscored the importance of ongoing efforts to achieve a ceasefire and ensure humanitarian aid access.
The UAE President praised Biden's initiatives and the joint mediation by the US, Egypt and Qatar aimed at securing a ceasefire and the release of detainees.
He stressed the need for continued efforts to resume a political process that supports a just and lasting peace based on the two-state solution.
The meeting was attended by His Highness Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Ruler of Abu Dhabi and National Security Adviser; His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs; Khaldoun Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman of the Executive Affairs Authority; and Yousef Al Otaiba, Ambassador of the UAE to the United States.
