Mali, UAE Deepen Economic Cooperation with New Partnership
Bamako – Efforts to strengthen economic relations between Mali and the United Arab Emirates took a new step forward this week, with the organization of a business forum bringing together Malian operators and Emirati investors.
The meeting, held on the sidelines of the bilateral commission, offered a platform to explore trade and investment opportunities. A partnership protocol was signed between the Malian Chamber of Commerce and the Emirati Chamber of Commerce, laying the groundwork for closer institutional cooperation.
The UAE, already engaged in Mali’s energy sector, expressed interest in expanding its involvement. Emirati representatives highlighted opportunities for collaboration in the run-up to the Dakar Water Conference in 2026, an event where Mali hopes to strengthen its international presence.
Observers see this growing convergence as a chance for Mali to attract foreign capital, diversify its partnerships, and advance its national economic interests on the global stage.
