Dr Anwar Gargash, the UAE's diplomatic adviser, has condemned a barrage of false allegations against the country, as it seeks to move past the Iran war crisis. Gargash stated that certain media outlets with specific agendas are spreading misinformation about the UAE, even as the nation continues to concentrate on regional developments and future preparations.
He emphasized that the best response to such claims is through tangible achievements and actions on the ground. Gargash also debunked reports suggesting that the UAE had facilitated financial assistance to Iran and had revoked residency for certain individuals, labeling them as untrue and part of a desperate media campaign. He reiterated that facts and concrete accomplishments surpass rumors, and action is more potent than mere noise.
Earlier, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the UAE had promptly ceased all trade, commercial exchange, and financial dealings with Iran due to the potential threat it poses to the region. This decision came in the wake of a series of assaults on UAE-owned tankers and Iran's refusal to engage in talks with the US. Afra Al Hameli, the director of strategic communications at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, vehemently rejected all allegations concerning the economic relationship between the United Arab Emirates and the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Shortly before the official statement, Iran launched two missiles at the UAE, one of which struck within Emirati territorial waters, while the other landed outside the country's borders. These attacks marked the first since mid-July.
