We were delighted to have fruitful discussions with His Excellency Khalifa Abdulrahman Almarzooqi, the United Arab Emirates Ambassador to Dar es Salaam and accredited to Zambia, at State House this afternoon.
During the meeting, His Excellency Khalifa Abdulrahman Almarzooqi conveyed a special message from His Excellency Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United Arab Emirates.
Additionally, he led a delegation of business leaders from IRH Holdings RSC Limited of the UAE to explore business opportunities in mining and other sectors. We extended our congratulations to the UAE for effectively managing their economy and achieving exponential growth for the benefit of their people.
Zambia and the UAE maintain cordial relations built on mutual trust and cooperation. As we work towards rebuilding our country's economy, we aim to draw upon the UAE's past experiences. Similar to us, they had abundant natural resources but required finance and technology.
During the discussion, we emphasized the importance of value addition, accessing quality markets with fair prices, and engaging in direct trade rather than relying on third parties.
Like the UAE, our vision is to create wealth for our citizens while fostering an enabling environment for them to generate their own pathways to prosperity.
Hakainde Hichilema,
President of the Republic of Zambia.
