The UAE's first ambassador to India, Hussain Hassan Mirza, expressed frustration with the ongoing war between Iran and the US-Israel alliance, suggesting that a phone call from PM Modi could deescalate the issue.
Mirza emphasized Modi's global standing and respect in the Gulf region, stating that one phone call from Modi to counterparts in Iran and Israel could end the conflict.
He noted that UAE's involvement in the conflict is unclear, with no apparent reason for the country's involvement, but acknowledged its crucial geopolitical position as a neighbor to Iran and partner to Israel.
Mirza believes that UAE's position makes it useful for negotiation between the two sides, and that Modi's influence could be the key to resolving the issue.
