Unique model

The fraternal relations between the UAE and Saudi Arabia are a unique model, given their depth, complementarity and a rich history of collaboration across all fields.

The UAE’s participation in the Kingdom’s celebrations emphasises the special and strong ties between the leadership and people of both fraternal nations. These relations have become a genuine foundation for Gulf, Arab, and regional cooperation, and a key pillar for stability, growth and prosperity in the region.

The bilateral relations between the two countries were enhanced by the efforts of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and King Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and expanded to a comprehensive partnership under the late Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan and King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.

The current leadership of the two countries, led by President Sheikh Mohamed, and King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia, continues to enhance these relations to the highest levels.

The fruitful ties between the two countries have positively impacted comprehensive and sustainable development in both the UAE and Saudi Arabia, spanning various fields, including trade, economic cooperation, joint investments, coordination, and consultations.
