According to the Foreign Office, the visit reflects the deep-rooted and fraternal relations between Pakistan and the UAE, and underscores their shared commitment to enhancing bilateral cooperation across all areas of mutual interest.
During his stay, Sheikh Abdullah will hold official talks with Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister. The dialogue will cover the entire spectrum of bilateral ties, with particular focus on trade and investment, energy cooperation, regional security, and enhanced people-to-people exchanges.
