The UAE takes responsibility to stand with its allies in the fight against terrorism, said Yousef Al Otaiba, UAE Ambassador to the United States, during a speech at the Washington-based Centre for Strategic and International Studies.
The ambassador described how the UAE is the promise of a new Middle East, a safe haven of stability, opportunity and tolerance.
"The character of our people and of our leadership is rooted in unity at home, compassion for others, and openness in minds, markets, and faith. We are 1 million Emiratis and 8 million foreign nationals representing virtually every country, living and working together peacefully in the region's strongest economy."
Al Otaiba highlighted how like-minded countries, such as the UAE and the US, must meet the immediate challenge of extremism and aggression in the region.
He emphasised that the war against Daesh is not a war against Islam, but a battle to save Islam from a death cult that is hijacking an entire religion to sell an ideology of hate and murder.
The UAE, he said, is taking the lead to offer a new vision for young Muslims and the region, unafraid of modernity and looking to the future. Ours is an Islam that empowers women, embraces others, encourages innovation and welcomes global engagement.
