In his speech during the meeting, Al Ghaith said, "The UAE and the United States are linked by outstanding ties of cooperation," pointing out that the "UAE-US Economic Policy Dialogue highlights the state's keenness and interest in promoting and developing these relations in light of the great attention paid by the leadership of the two countries to developing bilateral relations that contribute to achieving common interests."
