Africa-Press – Seychelles. <\/strong><\/span>Seychelles’ President Wavel Ramkalawan received the President of the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Friday, who is currently visiting Seychelles.
\n<\/b>
\nThis is the first time that the UAE President made an official call on Ramkalawan at State House since assuming office.<\/p>\n

Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan was elected on Saturday, May 14th by the members of the Federal Supreme Council of the UAE.<\/p>\n

The two heads of state and their delegations held talks but the details were not revealed to the media.<\/p>\n

Seychelles and the UAE have good relations and the Middle Eastern country is providing financial assistance to the island state for several projects.<\/p>\n

The UAE is currently financing the construction of a state-of-art hospital on La Digue with a donation of around $4 million. Construction of the facility on Seychelles’ third most populated island started in March 2022.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, in April this year, Seychelles signed an agreement with the UAE to modernise and transform its public service. Through the MOU, which will cover a three-year period, joint action will be taken to boost institutional capacities and government practices, while enhancing governance.<\/p>\n

President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan signed a guest book before leaving State House. This visit is the first time a UAE President makes an official call at State House.<\/p>\n
