Care for our citizens and opening up all avenues of development, innovation, and self-affirmation for them has been and will always be our top priority, and we will spare no effort to achieve this objective, as stated by the president.

He added that the UAE will continue to be a vital partner and supporter of anything that promotes progress and development for humanity and enhances the world’s capacity to confront its most pressing concerns, including climate change, food security, diseases, epidemics, and poverty.

A Prosperous Future

Industry, technology, food security, renewable energy, and health, among others, are economic sectors of the utmost importance to the UAE’s national security.

The UAE will continue to invest in all available opportunities to support these sectors. Recent global events have demonstrated the need to prioritize these industries in preparing for the present and future.
