Speaking at the exhibition, H.E. Abdullah Al Saleh affirmed the UAE and China share robust historical ties
and a strategic, comprehensive economic partnership. Guided by the visionary outlook of both
leaderships and their shared determination, this relationship continues to progress toward greater

prosperity, reflecting the aspirations of both the nation for sustainable economic development.

H.E. Abdullah Al Saleh stated: “The UAE’s role as Guest of Honour underscores the strong momentum

in our bilateral economic and commercial cooperation. We view this event as a strategic platform to
enhance UAE-China economic, investment, and trade partnerships, support business community
dialogue, and strengthen broader Arab-China cooperation. This exhibition also celebrates the deep-rooted
civilisational connection between our peoples, forged through the historic Silk Road and centuries of trade

and cultural exchange, bonds that continue to build enduring bridges of trust and collaboration.”

“UAE-China economic and investment relations are growing continuously, with China as the UAE’s

leading global trading partner. Conversely, the UAE is China’s primary non-oil trade hub in the Middle
East and Africa, acting as a crucial gateway with over 60 per cent of China’s regional exports transit
through it. This reflects our deep cooperation and economic integration, underscoring the strategic

importance of our bilateral relations in advancing sustainable development and mutual investment
opportunities,” H.E. added.

His Excellency Hussain Ibrahim Al Hammadi, UAE Ambassador to China, emphasised that the
UAE’s participation as Guest of Honor at this year’s China-Arab States Expo underscores the depth of the
historical and strategic ties with China.

His Excellency noted that this participation represents a valuable opportunity to showcase the UAE’s
pioneering developmental achievements, highlight promising investment and economic prospects across
various sectors, and further strengthen cooperation in key fields such as technology, energy, renewable

energy, modern agriculture, and innovation.
