UAE and Iran leaders meet at the BRICS summit for the first time since the war
The talks follow the UAE’s suspension of trade and financial dealings with Iran in August and follow UAE's firm position that trust with Iran "is a mountain to climb" after Iran's attacks on the Gulf countries.
UAE Crown Prince Sheikh Khaled met with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian at the BRICS summit in India, marking their highest-level meeting since the US-Israel conflict escalated the war. The UAE suspended trade and financial ties with Iran, but the leaders emphasized the need for dialogue and regional stability. BRICS nations supported the summit's call for maximum restraint and cooperation in maintaining global trade, supply chains, and energy.
Chinese President Xi Jinping urged BRICS to help bring peace to the region. Iranian and Arab leaders planned to meet in Oman to establish a joint shipping route through the Strait of Hormuz, despite the UAE's stance on controlling the strategic waterway.
