I also commend the work of the Negev Forum, as well as our collective work with India through I2U2, which is striving to deliver tangible benefits to the region and beyond and make real our aspirations for greater regional integration in the Middle East and beyond.'
He went on to congratulate the UAE on the success of Expo 2020 Dubai, noting that it demonstrates the UAE's resilience despite COVID's various mutations. 'We continue advancing our joint efforts to combat climate change, including through the historic recent launch of a US-UAE climate cooperation partnership, and we will continue to support your efforts when you host COP28 next year. We remain hopeful for an enduring peace throughout the Arabian Peninsula and appreciate your efforts to this end,' the US Secretary of State continued.
''May you enjoy continued peace and prosperity during this National Day celebration and beyond,'' Blinken said in conclusion.
