"Following the ceremonial welcome and reception at the Presidential Palace, the two leaders will sit down for a bilateral meeting, thereafter there would be an exchange of agreements and understandings after the discussions between the two leaders."
The India-UAE bilateral trade relationship has been strengthened following the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), which came into force on May 1, 2022. The bilateral trade stands at $85 billion.
Today evening, Modi will address thousands of Indian expats during the 'Ahlan Modi' event at the Zayed Sports City Stadium in Abu Dhabi. The event organisers said the registrations were closed because of an "overwhelming response" from the Indian community to listen to Modi's address.
On Wednesday, the Indian Prime Minister will participate in the World Government Summit 2024 in Dubai. Modi will deliver a keynote address at the summit where India is the 'guest of honour' country along with Turkey and Qatar. He will meet Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai.
