‘Evil for all humanity': UAE reaffirms support for India, meets with Op Sindoor delegation
'Terrorism is a threat not just to a single nation or region, but it is a global threat. We believe that we, as an international community, should come together, especially the Members of Parliament, to work on putting plans and strategies and engage in creating a better future for all humanity,' Al Nuaimi said. Ali Rashid Al Nuaimi, Chairman of the Defence Affairs, Interior & Foreign Affairs Committee of the Federal National Council, made the remarks following a productive meeting with an all-party Indian delegation led by Shiv Sena MP Shrikant Shinde as part of New Delhi's global outreach against terrorism. Abu Dhabi: The United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Thursday reaffirmed its unwavering support for India in the global fight against terrorism, with a leading Gulf parliamentarian declaring terrorism as a 'global threat' and an 'evil for all humanity'. The delegation is one of the seven multi-party delegations India has tasked to visit 33 global capitals to reach out to the international community on Pakistan's designs and India's response to terror. 'Terrorism is an enemy of humanity. Wise people should rise and speak against it,' Al Nuaimi said, emphasising the emirate's commitment to countering the menace. 'We are already cooperating with India on efforts to fight terrorism. The security of Indian nationals is non-negotiable. India is a strategic partner, not just with the government but also its people,' the UAE leader said, underscoring the deep bilateral ties with India. Shinde described the discussions as 'very fruitful,' highlighting the UAE's firm stance against terrorism. 'We met the Chairman of the Defence Committee, Dr. Ali Rashid Al Nuaimi, and the Minister of Tolerance, Sheikh Nahayan. The UAE is standing shoulder to shoulder with full commitment with India against terrorism,' Shinde said. He said the UAE's clear message was one of solidarity: 'We stand against terrorism with India, fighting terrorism. A country like the UAE, in a neighbourhood where diversity is the main culture – like India – still maintains peace and prosperity. The number of Indians who stay in the UAE feel protected.' Shinde emphasised the UAE's role as a key partner, noting that the UAE was the first to condemn the attack on India. 'The message is clear: terrorism cannot proliferate in the name of any religion. This is not an attack only on India but on humanity,' he said. Besides Shinde, the delegation comprises Manan Kumar Mishra (BJP), Sasmit Patra (BJD), E T Mohammed Basheer (IUML), S S Ahluwalia (BJP), Atul Garg (BJP), Bansuri Swaraj (BJP), former diplomat Sujan R Chinoy, and India's ambassador to the UAE Sunjay Sudhir. Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated after the Pahalgam attack, which claimed 26 lives. India carried out precision strikes on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in the early hours of May 7, following which Pakistan attempted to attack Indian military bases on May 8, 9 and 10. The Indian side responded strongly to the Pakistani actions. The on ground hostilities ended with an understanding on stopping the military actions following talks between the directors general of military operations of both sides on May 10.

UAE envoy spotlights sustainability, water diplomacy
UAE Ambassador to South Korea, Abdulla Saif Al Nuaimi, reiterated sustainability and water diplomacy on Tuesday in Seoul. 'In the United Arab Emirates, sustainability lies at the core of our national development agenda,' said Al Nuaimi during an event co-hosted by the UAE Embassy in Seoul and the Corea Image Communication Institute. He noted that sustainability offers a "timely and strategic opportunity" for the UAE and Korea, highlighting the UAE's commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. To support this target, the UAE enacted the Federal Decree-Law No. (11) of 2024 on the Reduction of Climate Change Effects, set to take effect on 30 May 2025. The law aligns with the Paris Agreement and is part of the UAE's broader Net Zero 2050 Strategy, which includes over 25 programs across six key sectors. Al Nuami also referenced the UAE's mobilization under the 'Year of Sustainability' campaign in 2023-2024, which concluded with the hosting of the COP28 climate summit in Dubai. 'COP28 reflects our determination to lead by example in shaping a low-carbon, climate-resilient future,' he said, spotlighting the UAE's co-hosting of the 2026 United Nations Water Conference alongside the Republic of Senegal. The conference, according to Al Nuami, is a milestone initiative to elevate water diplomacy and accelerate global action on water resilience. He cited the conference as UAE's post-COP28 efforts to link climate and water agendas for the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. The SDGs refer to global targets adopted by the UN in 2015, including ending poverty, taking climate action, achieving gender equality, and promoting peace, justice and strong institutions, by 2030. Meanwhile, Al Nuaimi highlighted the strong economic and strategic ties between the UAE and Korea, noting a shared commitment to sustainability, innovation and future-focused development. UAE-Korea collaboration can serve as a model for interregional cooperation, particularly in advancing clean energy, green technology and climate-resilient infrastructure, he hoped. The event drew prominent diplomatic figures, including Saudi Ambassador to Korea Sami M. Alsadhan, Oman Ambassador to Korea Zakariya Hamed Al Saadi and Kuwait Ambassador to Korea Deyab Farhan al-Rashidi, and others. sanjaykumar@
