Commenting on the contribution from Fatima, the Mother of the Nation, Sultan Mohammed Al Shamsi, Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs for Development and International Organisations and Member of the International Humanitarian and Philanthropic Council, stressed that the UAE remains resolute in providing humanitarian aid to people and nations facing the repercussions of conflicts and disasters, noting that these efforts are integral to the legacy left behind by the Founder, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
