Mohammed al-Julani, the leader of the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS)-led regime, arrived in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on July 7, 2025, marking his second visit to the country. During his visit, al-Julani met with UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed and later held talks with UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi. The meetings focused on several key issues, including reconstruction efforts, investment opportunities, and broader bilateral relations. Ahmad al-Shar'a, another political figure, was also reported to have returned to the UAE on the same day. The visits underscore ongoing diplomatic engagement between the HTS-led regime and the UAE, with discussions reportedly touching on regional matters involving Israel and other strategic concerns.
