A Decade of UAE Commitment to Yemen

-

UAE
 

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has always been a steadfast supporter of Yemen and its people, and Noura Al Kaabi, Minister of State, recently emphasized this commitment during her speech at the donor conference held in Geneva by Sweden and the Swiss Confederation in collaboration with the UN. Al Kaabi reiterated UAE's objective of 2023 as a year of peace for the troubled country. The conference's goal was to mobilize support for the 2023 Humanitarian Response Plan for Yemen.

Since 2015, the UAE has consistently supported the Yemeni people by giving them urgently required relief and assistance. Yemen has received $6.6 billion in help from the UAE so far, along with a $300 million deposit to support the local currency. Such support has been critical in helping Yemen to cope with the ongoing humanitarian crisis and to rebuild after years of conflict.

However, Al Kaabi's statement that the UAE believes the time has come to end the conflict in Yemen is particularly significant. Yemen remains plagued by violence and instability despite years of conflict and international efforts to resolve the crisis. The UAE's commitment to finding a long-term solution to the conflict is a critical step toward restoring peace and stability to the region.

Yemen's ongoing humanitarian crisis is one of the world's worst, with millions of people suffering from hunger, disease, and displacement. The international community must continue to support Yemen and its people, and the UAE's commitment to the 2023 Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan is an important step in that direction.  

It is heartening to hear that the UAE has consistently supported Yemen and its people, and Al Kaabi's statement at the donor conference in Geneva reaffirms this commitment. With the UAE's ongoing reconstruction and rehabilitation efforts, as well as its belief in finding a long-term solution to the conflict, Yemen may finally achieve peace and stability. In this critical time of need, the international community must continue to support Yemen and its people.

  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.

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...
