Do you think that once this conflict is over, the relationship between Iran and the UAE can

go back to what it was? The Iranian people have been not only members of our community here in

the UAE for many, many years, but Iran is a neighbor to us. The Revolutionary Guard,

however, have made it very clear from the very beginning what their true intent is towards their

other neighbors. I think it's too early to decide what will Iran look like down the line for us to

come to that type of conclusion. But what is absolutely crystal clear is a Revolutionary

Guard that harbors such ill will and such anger towards neighbors that have done no harm.

In fact, Yalda, during COVID, we were supporting the Iranian people with not just vaccines and PPE

gear, but also during earthquakes, humanitarian disasters, we've always been there. So,

this has been a really revealing moment to say these guys actually say one thing,

but then they do something completely different.
