The chancellor of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Abdullah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, ratified today his disposition to strengthen bilateral relations and promote investments in Peru, after being decorated by Peruvian's government in Lima.

This distinction was imposed by his Peruvian counterpart Jose Antonio Garcia Belaunde, who said this is the first time a UAE official visits Peru, which anticipates further meetings at the government level, and encourage its economic decision makers to invest in Peru.

The Arab diplomat thanked for the distinction and said also that the modernization of Callao Port, which is in charge of a company from his country, Dubai Port, “is a big project” that shows their interest in continuing with the bilateral relations.

Garcia Belaunde said that in 2011, Peru will host the III Summit of Arab Countries with South America.
