Indian investments/wealth is no where as much safe and value bearing as in Dubai/UAE property business. Infact UAE property business is again flourishing due to Indian investments only. In return some fifteen billion USD arfe remitted by Indian Expats back home. Hence it is no surprise that both UAE and India are forming strategic partnership. With India's investments UAE would still have been in 2007 recession.
What is interesting is the fact that UAE has allowed a foreign dignitary to use its soil for political speech which ironically lambaste the very sectarian division based policies which not only UAE but also the whole GCC region so feverishly wants to see implemented in all muslim states and groups.
It would also be interesting to see if UAE and other GCC countries are expecting India to form a Muslim only military band in their army to fulfill their security needs. Would India be ready to provide muslims only army for hire to GCC countries?? I dont see Hindu army or intelligence teams helping arab monarchs with their security while they also deal with Israel?
Strangely enough the whole of GCC print media censored terrorism related remarks of Modi? Even the electronic media only mention terrorism with Iran's interference in GCC region. Does this mean Modi went beyond the UAE sanctioned privilege with his neighbors and good/bad taliban comment? Both Saudi and UAE are still supportive of Taliban as latest wikileaks on Saudi clearly implicated its envoy to be in touch with Haqqanis who was even provided medical treatment in Saudi. How will Modi's good/bad taliban comment will be seen in Riyadh? Or is it that UAE is running its own show in GCC??
