He said the agreement creates new energy for positive change across the Middle East.
Bilateral relations between the UAE and the US, reaffirming a shared commitment to cooperate on efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19, promoting peace and security in the Arabian Gulf, counter-extremism and deterring threats to regional stability were also discussed.
