The United Arab Emirates has been extremely pleased with the news about the declaration of an immediate ceasefire between Pakistan and Afghanistan terming it as a crucial step in the rebuilding of peace and stability in the region. The decision is a welcome change to millions of people who inhabit either side of the border and will mark a turning point rather than warfare towards collaboration.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) in the UAE commended the role Qatar and Türkiye played in the mediation process since their collaborative diplomacy allowed building the atmosphere of constructive dialogue and mutual understanding. The UAE stressed that this ceasefire is not just a political victory but also a humanitarian one, a victory that opens the gate to education, business and the reconstruction of communities warped over years of instability.
A Partnership and a Story of Hope
By giving credit to the combined efforts of Qatar and Turkiye, the UAE has highlighted its trust in cooperative diplomacy – in which regional collaboration can break decades of suspicion. Peace has always been considered by the Emirati leadership as the basis of progress, economic opportunity and human dignity.
Over the years, the UAE has shown a reliable track record of engaging with the countries of Pakistan and Afghanistan and this has made it a trusted diplomatic partner in South Asia. It is not just diplomacy but its support extends to humanitarian assistance, educational and economic development projects aimed at enhancing the lives of the people.

Shared Prosperity and Regional Stability
Regional importance of peace between Afghanistan and Pakistan is that of the grandest magnitude.

With the guns going quiet on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, the statement made by the UAE is one of hope, friendship, and trust restoration, a reminder that long-term peace starts with humanity and rallies together in action.
