Good to see UAE expanding its African partnerships. India has strong ties with both nations - maybe we can explore trilateral cooperation in sectors like renewable energy? Our solar alliance could benefit all three countries. 🌞

UAE continues to impress with its diplomatic outreach! As an Indian working in Dubai, I've seen how they build win-win partnerships. Hope India takes notes - we should be more proactive in Africa too. Ghana is a growing economy with lots of potential.

Interesting development. UAE's investments in Africa are growing rapidly while India's engagement seems slower. We have historical ties with Ghana - shouldn't we be more visible there? At least our IT sector is doing well in both countries.

Both UAE and Ghana have large Indian communities. Our government should leverage these diaspora connections to strengthen economic ties. Maybe organize more business summits connecting Indian companies with opportunities in these markets?

While UAE-Ghana ties are important, I hope they don't forget their commitments to India. UAE is our third largest trade partner - we need their continued investment in our infrastructure projects. The I2U2 partnership shows promise though.

Positive development! As someone who's worked in Ghana, I can say both UAE and India have much to offer. UAE brings capital, India brings affordable tech solutions. Together we can help African nations develop sustainably. More power to South-South cooperation! ✊
