UAE foreign minister arrives on rare Iran visit

UAE foreign minister arrives on rare Iran visit


TEHRAN: Iran's official news agency is reporting the foreign minister of the�United Arab Emirates�has arrived in�Tehran�on a rare visit.
The Thursday report says�Abdullah bin Zayed�will meet President�Hassan Rouhani�as well as his Iranian counterpart Mohmmad�Javad Zarif�during his one-day visit, the first such trip by the UAE's foreign minister in years and since Rouhani took office in August 2013.

With billions of�U.S.�dollars in annual trade, the two countries are at odds over various issues, including Iran's control over three Islands at the mouth of the�Persian Gulf�as well as Tehran's support of Syrian President Bashar Assad.

However, the UAE was one of the first countries in the region to welcome last weekend's nuclear deal between�Iran�and world powers.
