Our relationship with China goes back many years, built on trust, mutual respect, and a shared belief in the power of trade and people-to-people connections. We are proud to support Chinese businesses as they grow their presence in the UAE, and equally proud of the role we play in bringing the UAE closer to China. Today's meeting is a reflection of that enduring partnership, and we look forward to deepening it further."
H.E. Zeng Jixin, Ambassador of the People's Republic of China to the UAE, said:

The meeting also underscored the role of Kanoo Travel, a subsidiary of The Kanoo Group, which has long served as a bridge between China and the Middle East.

China, The Kanoo Group noted, is very much a reality and a priority in its long-term vision.
Both sides concluded the meeting by pledging to deepen practical collaboration and advance more investment projects under the #ChinaUAE comprehensive strategic partnership — a framework that continues to unlock significant opportunities for businesses across both nations.
