9/12/25, 2:54 PM Sheikh Mohamed wanted culture of life in Mosul to defeat culture of death, UAE minister says | The National

"I feel for the UAE, to be one of the leading countries to be proactive and donate for the restoration ... that by itself shows what
the UAE is about, what the legacy or the ethos of Sheikh Zayed is about," affirmed Ms Al Kaabi, speaking from the newly rebuilt
Clock Church.

The UAE funded Unesco in a $50.4 million initiative driven by its Ministry of Culture, part of a total of $115 million mobilised for
the project.

However, the success of the project in the minister's eyes goes beyond the funding and beyond the bricks placed to restore such
buildings.
