The UAE side will be led by the Foreign Minister Shaikh Abdullah Bin Zayed al Nahyan, who is heading a 30-member team for the meeting while the Indian side will be led by the External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee.
In an interview to a news agency, the UAE minister had said that the meeting will provide a great scope for a further diversification of and deepening of the relationship between the two countries in all fields.
“I believe that the joint commission can play a major role in helping to define that new phase of the links between our two countries,” the minister had said.
The Indian ambassador to UAE C M Bhandari was also optimistic saying though the commission is meeting after a long time, now institutional framework is in place and meeting regularly.
“There is no fixed agenda for the meeting, but all aspects of the bilateral relations will be discussed,” he added.
