In a historic diplomatic exchange, H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE Minister of Foreign Affairs, held a productive phone call with Muhammad Ishaq Dar, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The two nations have enjoyed a long-standing relationship since the UAE’s formation in 1971, with Pakistan being one of the first countries to recognize the UAE. The ministers discussed avenues to enhance bilateral relations and strategic partnership, focusing on mutual interests that benefit both countries and their peoples.

Over the past year, the relations between the UAE and Pakistan have shown significant growth, with trade and economic relations increasing significantly. The UAE is Pakistan’s third-largest trading partner, and bilateral trade has been on the rise. In 2021, the UAE exported goods worth US$7.13 billion to Pakistan, while Pakistani exports reached US$1.52 billion in 2022. The two countries have also been discussing a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement to deepen their trade and investment ties.

Both countries have reaffirmed their commitment to strengthen their strategic partnership and intensify consultations and coordination in key areas. They have agreed to further enhance bilateral relations in diverse areas. The UAE and Pakistan have also discussed cooperation in high-level meetings, focusing on agriculture, food security, energy, and sustainable development.

Trade growth has been significant, with trade figures crossing over $1 billion in the first two months of 2023. Both countries have agreed to intensify consultation and coordination to strengthen their strategic partnership and develop tangible bilateral cooperation in key areas.

Solidarity in adversity was expressed by the Pakistani government, and the engagement between Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed and Muhammad Ishaq Dar sets the stage for a future where joint progress is not just envisioned but actively pursued, demonstrating the power of diplomacy in paving the way for a brighter, shared future.
