Saturday, November 07, 2009

Foreign Minister Shaikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan has announced UAE’s support to Saudi Arabia in defending its territories and securing its borders against any attacks.

 

 

He underlined the strong fraternal bonds and the unity of destiny between the UAE and Saudi Arabia.

“The UAE strongly condemns those heinous attacks. We consider that any harm to Saudi Arabia is a harm to the UAE, and we stand by it wholeheartedly,” he added.

Sheikh Abdullah described the action being taken by Saudi Arabia as a “defence of its own territories and maintaining of its sovereignty and stability. We deem any threat to Saudi Arabia’s security, as a threat to our own, and that requires us to confront it strongly and firmly.”
