UAE's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Gargash said the nation's strategic relationship with New Delhi is above all.
"Our strategic relationship with India is above all since India is one of the most important countries on the globe. So, it has nothing to do with India-Pakistan relation. India is important because it is India. It has opportunity, potential, science and population," Gargash was quoted as saying in an ANI report.

"It is very difficult to engage with India because India is a large democracy. so a lot of time it is busy with itself. In today's world, you have to nurture relationships. you have to build good relationships," he added.
The UAE on Sunday pledged total support to India in combating terrorism, as it looked towards elevating bilateral defence and security ties and signing a Strategic Cooperation Agreement during the visit of His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan,  Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of UAE Armed Forces, in New Delhi from Tuesday.
