He expressed his pride in the outcome of the meeting of President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and President Vladimir Putin, in St. Petersburg, during former’s visit to Russia last month.

“The presidential meeting reflected the rapid growth in cooperation between the two countries,” the UAE top diplomat said.

The meeting was attended by Dr. Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, Ahmed bin Ali Mohamed Al Sayegh, Minister of State, and Dr. Mohamed Ahmed bin Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Ambassador to the Russian Federation.

Al Sayegh stressed the depth of relations between the UAE and Russia, emphasising the keenness of the leadership of the two countries to enhance prospects for cooperation to serve common interests.

He also emphasised that the UAE’s policy will continue to support peace and stability at the regional and global levels and exert all possible efforts to promote de-escalation.
