The official also noted, "We are pleased to observe that non-oil trade between the two countries reached 5.3 billion dollars last year, and positive interactions between the two countries are ongoing this year."
 
He also expressed his anticipation, saying, "Through our entry into Korea, we will serve as a bridgehead to facilitate closer business development between Korea and the UAE."
