The relationship between the UAE and Pakistan has deep roots, going back to 1971 when the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the Founding Father of the UAE, laid its foundation. Today, these ties are stronger than ever, with both nations benefiting from strategic partnerships and growing economic cooperation. The UAE remains Pakistan’s top trading partner and largest investor, having recently committed $10 billion to key sectors in Pakistan’s economy.
