‘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.

World leaders, nobel laureates, and peace advocates unite in UAE for Global Justice, Love & Peace Summit
In a historic moment that brought together the world's most inspiring changemakers, the Global Justice, Love & Peace Summit took center stage at Expo City, UAE, on April 12 and 13, 2025. With the powerful theme 'One Planet, One Voice: Global Justice, Love and Peace,' the summit witnessed an extraordinary gathering of 12 Nobel Peace Prize laureates, international diplomats, human rights defenders, and peace advocates from across the globe. This year's summit was more than a series of speeches — it was a call to action, a platform for voices demanding justice, equality, and peace in a rapidly changing world. From war-torn regions to global classrooms, the summit's message resonated loud and clear: unity and justice are essential tools for building a better tomorrow. Among the distinguished Nobel Laureates in attendance were Lech Wałęsa (Poland), Kailash Satyarthi (India), Nadia Murad (Iraq), Shirin Ebadi (Iran), Leymah Gbowee (Liberia), Ouided Bouchamaoui, Prof. Mohan Munasinghe (Sri Lanka), Housine Abbasi, and Mohamed Fadhel Mahfoudh (Tunisia). Each brought powerful stories of courage, struggle, and transformation, united by a shared mission to foster a world grounded in peace, dialogue, and fairness. A key highlight of the summit was the launch of the Peace Charter: Love Letter to Humanity — a landmark document that encapsulates core values such as equality, education, freedom, and the power of togetherness. The Charter was passionately endorsed by all delegates, envisioned as a guiding light not just for governments, but for individuals and communities worldwide. The UAE, a nation recognised for its commitment to tolerance and unity, proudly hosted this global milestone. Dubai's Expo City transformed into a beacon of hope, where cultures and nations came together not as separate entities, but as one global family advocating for peace. The summit was honored by the presence of esteemed personalities including Dr Ali Rashid Al Nuaimi, UAE Parliamentarian and Chair of the Federal National Council's Defense, Interior & Foreign Affairs Committee, who shared insights on the UAE's diplomatic vision for a peaceful world. Bringing deep intellect and heart to the event, Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, former president of Mauritius, moderated insightful sessions. From India, a strong delegation made a meaningful impact: Chandra Kumar Bose (Socio-political activist and Convenor), Dr Vishwanath Karad (Founder, MIT World Peace University), and Dr Ahmed Haque, a renowned peace activist and delegate, all lent powerful voices to the cause of global harmony and justice.
