The meeting was attended by Grzegorz Gawin, Head of Mission at the Embassy of Poland to the UAE; Ahmed Rashid Saeed Al Neyadi, Director-General of the Authority; and several officials from both sides.
Al Derei welcomed the Polish Mufti and his accompanying delegation, praising the strong and growing relations between the UAE and Poland across various sectors.

The Mufti of Poland, in turn, expressed appreciation for the warm reception and praised the UAE’s humanitarian approach, leadership and global initiatives promoting peace, tolerance and coexistence.
He also commended the UAE’s longstanding role in supporting peoples and communities without discrimination and contributing to efforts that ensure dignified and stable living conditions.
