LONDON: The president of the UAE, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al-Nahyan on Monday discussed the latest developments in Gaza with the UK prime minister, Keir Starmer.
During their telephone conversation they also discussed efforts by their nations to promote mutual prosperity, and advance peace and stability across the Middle East and the wider world.
The leaders emphasized the need to ensure the ceasefire brokered in October continues to hold in Gaza, and to facilitate the delivery of aid in sufficient quantities to reduce the suffering of civilians in the territory, the Emirates News Agency reported.
They underlined the urgent need to work toward a just and lasting peace between Palestinians and Israelis based on a two-state solution, which they said remains the only viable path to stability in the region and a better future for all its peoples and nations.
The president and the prime minister also discussed ways in which cooperation between their countries might be enhanced in support of mutual interests.
