That is why the United Arab Emirates decided to pump investments estimated at about three billion dollars this year in areas that enhance community development and economic ties, and the state also seeks to increase the volume of trade exchange with the Iraqi Republic, which exceeded fourteen billion dollars in the year 2020. We therefore welcome the activation of the role of the Business Council Emirati-Iraqi to play a vital role in strengthening the frameworks for joint action.” His Excellency Dr. Ali Allawi said: “Participation in Expo 2020 Dubai provides us with many opportunities to benefit from the latest developments in the fields of science, technology, and artificial intelligence in particular, as it opens new doors in the worlds of business and education, as well as in terms of talent and entrepreneurship.” . He added: “We thank the United Arab Emirates for this kind invitation, and we appreciate the level of organization and hospitality at Expo 2020 Dubai. This international event represents an important initiative that spreads the necessary knowledge for us, dispels the sense of despair at this stage, and stimulates our region to further progress.” The jubilee platform will also witness the return of the singer, songwriter and composer Hatem Al Iraqi to Expo 2020 to revive another concert, followed by a concert by the Iraqi-Moroccan singer Shatha Hassoun, known as “Bint Al-Rafidain”, who will entertain the audience with a selection of her well-known songs.
