The UAE government has taken a lenient approach, with no recent forced deportations reported. Currently, there are around 2.2 million Pakistani workers in the UAE, and about 3,500 have been deported in recent months. The UAE's new ambassador, Salem Mohammed Al Zaabi, has contributed positively to enhancing bilateral relations.
