Russia and UAE Discuss Terrorism in Libya and Intelligence Ties

LATVIA-UAE
Russian and United Arab Emirates officials discussed the compounding issues in Libya and the enhancement of their military and intelligence ties during a visit to the UAE by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

The two officials agreed to "continue close and confidential political ties and contact between our intelligence agencies on security issues," Lavrov said at the joint news conference with his Emirati counterpart Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed in Abu Dhabi on Feb 2.

"We also took note of the dynamic and efficient work of the Intergovernmental Commission for Military and Technical Cooperation," he said.

According to Theodore Karasik, senior advisor to Washington-based Gulf States Analytics, the intelligence cooperation between the two countries is part of a quadruple arrangement between Russia, UAE, Jordan and Egypt.
