Success story

The visionary leadership of the United Arab Emirates puts the country on the path of stability and prosperity. The United Arab Emirates is a shining example for the whole world making people’s lives better and strengthening the country (“UAE non-oil foreign trade exceeds Dhs1 trillion in 6 months, says Sheikh Mohammed,” Aug.23, Gulf Today website).

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, confirmed that the UAE’s non-oil foreign trade exceeded Dhs1 trillion in just six months. Sheikh Mohammed said on his Twitter account on Monday, “For the first time, our non-oil foreign trade exceeded Dhs1 trillion in just half a year... with a growth of 17% over the first half of this year, proving to the world the recovery of the international trade after the most difficult pandemic that the world has passed through.”

At the time when the whole world was fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic, the United Arab Emirates not only saved people but also strengthened its economy.  

I would like to congratulate the great leadership of the United Arab Emirates and its people on achieving the goal of Dhs1 trillion non-oil foreign trade in just six months.
