UAE – Mubasher: The US and the UAE announced that their mutual defence cooperation agreement (DCA) signed earlier this year has come into force amid simmering tensions between Washington and Tehran.
The DCA will strengthen military coordination between the two countries to further boost the already strong military, political, and economic partnership at a critical time, according to a joint statement.
“The US and the UAE share a deep interest in promoting prosperity and stability in the region,” the statement added.
Upon the agreement, both countries cement collaboration on defence and security matters and bolster their efforts to maintain security in the Gulf region.
On Wednesday, the US national security advisor John Bolton met his Emirati counterpart Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi to tackle ways of boosting collaboration between the two countries.
