UAE participation in 81st UN General Assembly

Overview

The United Arab Emirates, led by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, participated in the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

Initially, the UAE delegation focused on strategic priorities including conflict resolution, global stability, UN reforms involving artificial intelligence, and climate action. Al Nahyan noted the assembly was a chance to “restore confidence in international law” following seven months of regional conflict.

As the session progressed, the focus shifted toward bilateral diplomacy. Al Nahyan held meetings with foreign ministers from Greece, Singapore, Trinidad and Tobago, and Sri Lanka to discuss economic, trade, and technological cooperation. These discussions also included preparations for the 2026 United Nations Water Conference, which the UAE intends to co-host with Senegal.
