PM Modi arrives in UAE for day-long visit

Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived here on Saturday on a day-long visit to the UAE during which he will meet UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and review the burgeoning bilateral ties between the two strategic partners.
Modi arrived in Abu Dhabi following his successful two-day visit to Paris where he joined French President Emmanuel Macron for the Bastille Day parade as the Guest of Honour and signed several agreements to bolster bilateral ties.
Modi will hold talks with Sheikh Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and Ruler of Abu Dhabi.
“I look forward to meeting my friend, H.H. Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan,” Prime Minister Modi said in his departure statement on Thursday.
“Our two countries are engaged across a wide range of sectors such as trade, investments, energy, food security, science and technology, education, fintech, defence, security, and robust people-to-people ties,” he said.
