Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said India was prepared to extend “all possible support” to restore peace in West Asia, as he held talks with UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi amid escalating tensions in the region.
The meeting took place soon after Modi arrived in the UAE on the first leg of his five-nation tour, which will also take him to the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway and Italy.

In his opening remarks during the bilateral meeting, Modi condemned the recent attacks targeting the UAE amid the ongoing US-Israeli conflict involving Iran.
“We condemned the attacks on the UAE,” Modi said, adding that “the way UAE has been targeted is not acceptable”.
