European Council President António Costa said the European Union and the United Arab Emirates could deepen cooperation to help restore stability in the region.
Sharing a post on X following a meeting with President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, he thanked the UAE leadership for ensuring the safety of around 200,000 EU citizens living in the country, Caliber.Az reports.
“We discussed how the EU and the UAE can cooperate more closely to bring stability back to the region and protect our shared interests. The EU is committed to working with partners in the region to restore freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, guarantee the safe passage of ships around the Arabian Peninsula, and to support all diplomatic efforts for lasting peace in the Middle East,” Costa said.
