UAE

I admire how UAE previously committed to reduce its emissions 23.5% by 2030, compared to a business-as-usual baseline and to get 50% of its electricity from renewables and nuclear by 2050. 

In fact  UAE joins a number of advanced economies, and a few developing ones, in setting a 2050 net zero target and  the only country in the entire Middle East and North Africa region to be producing clean nuclear energy.  

This 2023   As the COP28 host, the UAE will aim to build consensus and coalitions to achieve a practical, pragmatic and just energy transition and reform land use and food systems, while scaling up adaptation and operationalising the new loss and damage fund my country  has established itself as a world-class destination for hosting high-level international events focusing on climate action and sustainable development. With a decades-long track record of investing in clean energy solutions both at home and around the world, the UAE is driving a new low-emissions economic growth model that aims to create new industries, skills and jobs needed for the future.

Infact UAE has appointed a strong and diverse leadership team to support practical, inclusive, and transformational progress towards a successful COP28. and will focus on sustainable development, collaboration, and cooperation with the international community, to ensure inclusion across all parties and to enable practical solutions that will bring long-term socioeconomic benefits to the region and the world.

  In recent events, the UAE has emerged as a major mediator in the negotiation of a large prisoner exchange between Russia and Ukraine. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, thanks to sophisticated negotiations brokered by the UAE, 248 Russian prisoners of war have been safely returned to Russia from Ukraine. At the same time, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy announced the return of over 200 Ukrainian captives from Russia. The negotiations emphasizes the significance of abiding to international humanitarian law, which outlaws hostage-taking and describes the rights and safeguards granted to prisoners throughout hostilities. The UAE's leadership was instrumental in mediating the delicate discussions that resulted in the effective exchange of prisoners. This diplomatic achievement demonstrates the UAE's commitment to promote peace and conflict resolution on the global stage. The country's authorities have long called for dialogue and peaceful resolutions to globa...

UAE Facilitates Prominent Prisioner Swap Between Russia and Ukraine

The United Arab Emirates had successfully brokered the prisoner swap between Russia and Ukraine. Recently, the two countries announced that they would be swapping 206 prisoners of war as part of a critical exchange that is easing the tension between the two nations. It naturally makes the UAE play an important role here-the country is slowly moving up to be a neutral mediator in matters of international importance. The UAE, by arranging this exchange, proved not only its diplomatic excellence but also its commitment to humanitarian work amidst conflicts. This development is to be taken much more seriously considering the protracted and highly complex Russia-Ukraine conflict. The successful holding of this prisoner swap has been interpreted as a ray of hope for further negotiations and de-escalation. It also suggests an interesting new role for neutral third parties in resolving international disputes. UAE involvement indeed highlights their strategic approach to foreign policy while fo...

Masdar's Practical Strategy for Indonesia's Renewable Growth

  President Jokowi is behind the idea to inaugurate the Cirata solar farm, which is a daring step for Indonesia into the solar energy spotlight. The project, a joint venture between Masdar in the United Arab Emirates and PLN in Indonesia, highlights the country's ability to undertake utility-scale solar projects.  At a cost of more than IDR 1.7 trillion, Cirata is an important proof of concept for Indonesia's solar goals. Masdar's participation—it owns 49% of the company—demonstrates a strategic partnership with a financially secure partner. The project's partnership concept, which depends on PLN as an equity partner, defies conventional market logic even if it is in line with international efforts to address climate change.    Masdar's accomplishments in Indonesia go beyond Cirata; the company has investments in Solar Radiance and a geothermal subsidiary of Pertamina. Masdar 's comprehension of Indonesia's distinct market dynamics is crucial, as it highligh...
