DUBAI — His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, yesterday received US Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson.
Shaikh Mohammed and the visiting US official discussed ways of boosting bilateral cooperation in view of the new open markets policy which the US has adopted. Paulson told Shaikh Mohammed that the US would keep its markets open to Arab foreign investments and Sovereign Wealth Funds.
The issue of the dollar pegging was also discussed. The UAE currency, said Shaikh Mohammed, will remain pegged to the dollar as long as it is in the interest of the UAE's national economy. —
