Sultan bin Saeed Al Mansouri, Minister of Economy, stated that the ties between both the UAE and Kosovo are historically strong, which extend ba-ck to time of UAE’s Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
He remarked that these ties grew into an integrated economic partnership, which resulted in ground-breaking agreements on the avoidance of double taxation, and the protection and promotion of investment and civil aviation, among others.
Al Mansouri stated this during the UAE-Kosovo Economic Forum, organised by the Federation of UAE Chambers of Commerce and Industry, in cooperation with the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, at the SCCI headquarters.
Al Mansouri pointed out that the trade figures between the UAE and Kosovo do not reflect the economic potentials of both countries, even though non-oil trade exchange increased to $14.1 million in 2017 as compared to the $5.7 million posted in 2016.
