The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has reinforced its commitment to Africa through development, innovation and humanitarian actions.
This was noted by Saud Rashid Al-Hajilan, first Vice President of the Asian-African Parliamentary Council and President of the International Federation of Asian and African Trade Unions.
In a statement marking Union Era Day, Al-Hajilan praised the UAE’s leading role at the regional and international levels, highlighting its model of wise diplomacy and humanitarian action, as well as its steadfast commitment to supporting security, stability, dialogue and cooperation among nations.
