The UAE can be an example to the world, says Hillary Clinton

 The United Arab Emirates (UAE) and its capital Abu Dhabi are well-positioned for the future and can be an example to the world, according to former US Secretary of State and former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Clinton came to Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, to take part in the second annual Forbes 30/50 Summit, an event celebrating generations of female leaders. The event started on March 8 to coincide with International Women's Day. 

Clinton also met New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) students. Mariet Westermann, NYUAD Vice Chancellor, said, “It is a great honor for NYU Abu Dhabi to welcome Hillary Rodham Clinton, the former US Secretary of State, to our campus.”

Speaking at the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) on Monday, Clinton said that the UAE can set an example to the world when it hosts COP 28 later this year. 

Clinton would also be joined in conversation by Olena Zelenska, First Lady of Ukraine, tennis great, and equality champion Billie Jean King and Gloria Steinem, during the summit on Wednesday.

The UAE will host the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference or Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC, also known as COP28, from November 30 to December 12, at Expo City, Dubai. 

Reportedly, the UAE is set to address many issues related to climate change at the 28th session of the United Nations Climate Change conference. His Excellency Dr. Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber is the President-Designate for the COP28. 

The UAE's commitment to achieving climate goals, net-zero goals, clean energy, biodiversity, as well as food and water security is appreciated by many global leaders. The UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 strategic initiative has helped the UAE towards transformational progress for COP28.

The UAE has already announced billions of investments in clean energy projects.

China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil...
