Re: West Asia News and Discussions
Wonder what was the reason for UAE president to visit India on such short notice for a 1.5 hours meeting! There appears to be some realignment going on in West Asia. The recent Saudi-UAE spat in Yemen, the Iran protests, Turkey-Saudi-Pak axis, Israel-Palestine conflict etc has kept the region on the boil. Looks like there is lot boiling under the surface in many countries.
