If that is what UAE wants so then let it be, it will be a mistake.NEW DELHI: On Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s first trip to West Asia, India and United Arab Emirates relations have undergone a major facelift.
The Gulf nation fully backed India’s stance on the need to dismantle terror infrastructure, pushed for deeper counter-terrorism cooperation and even suggested a reassessment of traditional positions that favoured Pakistan, even as bilateral relations were upgraded to a ‘comprehensive strategic partnership’.
At the end of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s two-day visit on Monday, the joint statement marked a major convergence on security, trade and terror issues and a departure from the past in bilateral relations, when UAE had leaned heavily towards Pakistan on Kashmir.
At the meeting on Monday, Crown Prince Mohamed Bin Zayed al Nahyan and Modu called “on all nations to fully respect and sincerely implement their commitments to resolve disputes bilaterally and peacefully, without resorting to violence and terrorism”.
MEA spokesperson Vikas Swarup tweeted this line with the tag ‘breakthrough’ to indicate the elation on the Indian side. Sources indicated that this was a vindication of India’s stance that all issues of outstanding nature with Pakistan could be discussed bilaterally under the Lahore declaration and the Shimla agreement.
This comes after Pakistan and UAE had gone through strained relations after Islamabad had refused to contribute troops for the GCC coalition that intervened in Yemen against the Houthi rebels. At that time, UAE Minister of State for foreign affairs Anwar Mohammed Gargash - with whom Modi took a selfie on Sunday - said that Pakistan could pay a “heavy price” for its “ambiguous stance”.
The bilateral document focused sharply on terrorism — the first time both countries strongly converged on the issue. It asserted that both leaders agreed to “denounce and oppose terrorism in all forms and manifestations, wherever committed and by whomever, calling on all states to reject and abandon the use of terrorism against other countries, dismantle terrorism infrastructures where they exist, and bring perpetrators of terrorism to justice”.
For the first time, India and UAE have set up a dialogue between between their National Security Advisors and National Security Councils. “The National Security Advisors, together with other high level representatives for security from both nations, will meet every six months. The two sides will also establish points of contact between their security agencies to further improve operational cooperation,” said the joint statement.
There was also concurrence to work together on controlling, regulating and sharing information on flow of funds toward radicalisation activities.An interesting bilateral initiative will be to coordinate efforts to “counter radicalisation and misuse of religion by groups and countries for inciting hatred, perpetrating and justifying terrorism or pursuing political aims”.

The U.A.E allowed someone who is considered a mass murderer and a radical hindu by Pakistanis to spew venom against Pakistan on its soil.
Hopefully this wakes some poodles up !
Oh so UAE is ready to dismantle it's networks??Surprise Surpise!!
In war against terrorism there are 2 choices.... this side or the other side.
Pakistan's military attaché in US was called in by Dick Cheney and was asked to decide in next minute if 'you are with us or against us'
Hypocrisy is faking up news about UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, but never talking about how Iran treat its minorities.
No random poster was posting on this forum... it was all the commissioned non commissioned hate brigade.
Who even support Iran bombing on Pakistan... every one of you brigade come to defend it.
As a matter of fact, all terror activities in Pakistan have its roots in today's Afghanistan, which is puppet state of Iran, thus explains the hate... which lead to APS killing and Rawalpindi Mosque attack. etc.
Pakistani flag was never ravaged in Afghanistan as ANA did it, but no complaints were recorded by the anti Arab brigade
Many members of the Pakistani intelligence community (including a recently retired DG-ISI) have underaken consulting or direct jobs with the UAE's internal security services.....the chances of UAE "training its guns" on Pakistan are slim to none.
I'll give credit to these indians for coming up with sensationalist "56 inch chest" headlines for their FART-icles all aimed for local consumption.
Stop worry about us and go and get your country free from uncle sam.
Well in current era no nuclear country can afford a direct war. Pakistan used its strength of making jidhadis and causing proxy war, India used its strength of cornering of Pakistan.
Its a game, both countries are making there moves and counter moves. One who is more innovative yet comprehensive in its approach will make the kill.
Modi delivered this speech in Pakistan cricket board made ground and now Indian administration of ground and UAE administration decided not to facilitate Pakistan Super League in this ground......wooooohoooooooo camel jockies on revenge mode after Pakistan refused to help in Yemen............lolzzz
such bullshyt news and views can only come from Indian news sources.
Dehati aurut and his media thinks that wherever he goes, moving forward Pakistan will be sidelined by that country for ever. A mission which that dehati aurut took an oath for. LOLZ!
I am glad about this. I hope Pakistani's wake upto the reality that UAE has been funding India. Funding that will circulate into bullets and bombs that our boys on the border face every day.
GCC took it very personal, as you know they publish very humiliating cartoon in their newspaper about Pakistanis.......miskeen...ill give you credit where it's due - at least you admit that india supported proxies against Pakistan. Most of these country people of yours especially the droves of them on this forum lack the spine to admit it.
the Afghan experiment didnt work too well for india but then again neither did Khalistan (thanks to the God damn Bhuttos)
the games will continue no doubt
never understood what the huge deal was about sending troops - UAE never sent a single one of its troops to Yemen so why should we have?
Yemen is a lost cause for now....though the Houthis aren't as strong now as they were a few months ago, they've taken many casualties
what can you expect from hijra-run media and hijra fanatic leader of theirs who wears mickey mouse topis and skin-tight stockings
Hijras at their finest
GCC took it very personal, as you know they publish very humiliating cartoon in their newspaper about Pakistanis.......miskeen...
