Pakistan’s Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif arrived in the United Arab Emirates on Thursday for a one-day official visit.
He was received at Abu Dhabi’s Al Bateen Airport by Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Ruler of Abu Dhabi and National Security Adviser.
The visit comes at the invitation of UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and is aimed at further strengthening bilateral relations between the two nations. Sharif is accompanied by several senior officials, including Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar.
This marks the Prime Minister’s second visit to the UAE this year, following his participation in the World Governments Summit 2025 in Dubai earlier in February.
The agenda for the current visit is expected to include discussions on regional and international developments, as well as enhanced cooperation in trade, investment, and energy.
The UAE and Pakistan share strong diplomatic, economic, and cultural ties, with regular high-level exchanges reinforcing their longstanding relationship.
