ABU DHABI // The outcomes of Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed’s trip to New Zealand last month were discussed during a ministerial meeting on Sunday.
Dr Anwar Gargash, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, met New Zealand foreign minister Murray McCully in the capital, expressing the UAE’s interest in developing relations between them.
Mr McCully applauded the two countries’ friendly ties and said New Zealand was looking forward to building strong partnerships with the Emirates, reported Wam, the state news agency.
Other ministry officials also attended the meeting.
Sheikh Abdullah, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, had been in Auckland last month. He also visited Australia, where he met his counterpart Julie Bishop in Canberra to discuss areas including trade.

Children who witnessed blood bath want to help others
Aged just 11, Khulood Al Najjar’s daughter, Nora, bravely attempted to fight off Philip Spence. Her finger was injured when she put her hand in between the claw hammer and her mother’s head.
As a vital witness, she was forced to relive the ordeal by police who needed to identify the attacker and ensure he was found guilty.
Now aged 16, Nora has decided she wants to dedicate her career to helping other victims of crime.
“It was very horrible for her. She saw her mum, dying, just next to her eyes. But now she just wants to go forward,” said Khulood, speaking about how her eldest daughter was dealing with the trauma of the incident five years ago. “She is saying, 'mama, I want to be a lawyer, I want to help people achieve justice'.”
Khulood’s youngest daughter, Fatima, was seven at the time of the attack and attempted to help paramedics responding to the incident.
“Now she wants to be a maxillofacial doctor,” Khulood said. “She said to me ‘it is because a maxillofacial doctor returned your face, mama’. Now she wants to help people see themselves in the mirror again.”
Khulood’s son, Saeed, was nine in 2014 and slept through the attack. While he did not witness the trauma, this made it more difficult for him to understand what had happened. He has ambitions to become an engineer.
