UAE seeks to de-escalate Middle East tension: ADNOC CEO

The United Arab Emirates is seeking a de-escalation of tension in the Middle East, the chief executive of state-run Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) said on Tuesday. His remarks came after Iran accused the United States of closing the path to diplomacy with new sanctions.

“The UAE will work … to defuse and deescalate the current threat,” Sultan al-Jaber, chief executive of ADNOC and minister of state, told a conference in London. “Now is the time for wisdom, diplomacy and the concerted efforts of the international community.”
